Lessons on Leadership from the Life and Times of Ezra, part 4 - Get Set!

In my thirty years of life and experience in leadership roles in Christian organizations, there are leadership lessons that I learned (and continue to learn) from the life of ministry to which God called me.  Over that time, He taught me lessons based on stories, principles, and truths from the Bible that have been translated into personal application.  This particular series of articles focuses on a set of those lessons drawn from the book of Ezra in the Old Testament, the same lessons that I have published in my latest book. This week, (along with last week and next week, and in honor of the upcoming Olympic Games in Paris) we are starting the race of leadership. Today, in part 4, it’s “Get Set!,” where we get into position to start running by first preparing ourselves, both personally and spiritually, with lives of integrity.Thank you, everybody. This is Jeff McMaster, and you have been listening to the Leadership Ezra podcast, where we connect biblical truth with wisdom, and apply it to the practice of leadership. Come back next time to hear me once again connect these dots of Faith…Wisdom…and Leadership. And don't forget to order a copy of my book, “Leadership Ezra,” available on Amazon.
