A foremost teacher on leadership, John C. Maxwell, says that “everything rises and falls on leadership”. The American Heritage Dictionary, 3rd Edition defines leadership as “the ability to guide or show the way to by going in advance”. With these two statements it also becomes imperative that leaders understand the process required for accepting the assignment to turn a big world upside down. Simply, it takes a group of unified leaders giving themselves to commitment, consistency, and completion yet never relinquishing the power of one.

 Great leaders always maximize the wisdom gained from examples gone before.  Biblical leaders such as Abraham, Joshua, and Jesus are the standard for leading people. Also, a leader’s bench-march continued to be set forth by world leaders like Abraham Lincoln, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and the Reverend Billy Graham. These leaders have accepted the truth that leadership begins at home, but is magnified by the manner in which one worships God; thus, it causes one to make a world of difference!
