Good Followers

From the Summer 2008 Ockenga Connections:

Contrary to what we would guess by looking at row upon row of books on leadership at Borders and our neighborhood Christian bookstore, the New Testament speaks very little about being a good leader. There really is so little biblical evidence for the need for big visionary dreamers. The clarion call of the Gospels is all about becoming good followers. This is what Jesus asks of us: to be humble dreamers with enough sense to follow him. (David Horn)

many ways of God seem contrary to our worldly way of thinking
and even when we know this
it is hard to get our brains around it in our daily lives.
