Laying the Foundation for Ministry Leadership

Here at Leaders.Church, we believe that each leader experiences a unique journey in their pursuit of God’s calling. This can be a frightening reality as you may feel alone at times. However, this is actually one of the most encouraging realities you will encounter. Your journey is inspired by a calling that God has placed on your life to change the world! Your journey is more than just a story; it involves your relationship with Jesus Christ and His involvement with your ministry. Here, we outline the fundamentals for your foundation for ministry leadership.

In order to fully understand how your personal journey relates to your ministry leadership, we will look toward biblical examples of varying journeys held by leaders in the Bible. Having a firm grasp on your own personal calling and convictions from the Lord is key. This allows you to maximize your ministry influence once you permit the Holy Spirit to work through you.

Sometimes your journey will be rough. As it states in James 1:2, “consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.” The Bible promises trials. With this in mind, take comfort in knowing that during these trials, God can, and wants to move through you.

Now that you understand how important your personal journey is for the strength of your ministry leadership, what is next? How can you identify what God wants to do through you? What types of questions should you ask yourself in order to obtain a better understanding of your foundation for ministry leadership?

Our goal is to inspire you to value your personal journey and utilize it according to God’s purpose for your life and ministry. We will provide you with multiple key questions to ask yourself as you do so. Your personal journey matters!
