"If you hold a leadership position but are not equipping the saints for the work of service, then you are not a leader. You may hold the position; you may have the title; you may be called a leader; but you're not a leader as the Bible defines it, because leadership means equipping."
—from the book, Experiencing Leadershift by Don Cousins
For more info, see Mark 3:13-19, Matthew 28:18-20, Ephesians 4:11-12, and 2 Timothy 2:2 for starters.
That's what I'm thinking.
What do you think?

Bill, I'm personally blaming you for making me memorize Eph 4:11-12 and having it make a dramatic impact on my view of the church.
How could you?
How could you not?
I wished I had this quote in the Trainining Dialogue presentation yesterday. I think some of my "Leaders" might have needed to take the long walk.
