It's easy to confuse leading and following

The quote below describes Jesus and the way that He lived. It appears that too many of today's Christian leaders are so busy being leaders that they don't have time to be followers. I guess the difference is that Jesus wasn't in it for the glory.

'Leaders, if they will be persons of lasting and effective impact, never view themselves as anything but followers.'

Joseph M. Stowell, 'Following Christ'
