Description
Summary:Servant leadership is one of the major topics in Christian leadership education and training programs. Servant leadership is not a matter of knowledge and cognition, or of skills, traits, and theories, but of practice and action. The life of Jesus epitomizes the true and perfect example of servant leadership. In the Christian community, all effective leaders must strive to emulate the attitude of Jesus, whose great love motivated Him to unselfishly give up everything to serve human beings. This article holds to the premise that if the principles of servant leadership demonstrated in the life of Jesus are practiced in the life of human leaders, the church will be positively changed and effectively achieves its mission of saving souls.
