Ethics

I just finished reading T Burton Pierce’s, Ministerial Ethics: A Guide for Spiritual-Filled Leaders. It was really good! It challenged me on a few different levels. My favorite chapter dealt with being authentic in your ministry. He talked about how our love for the people that we are leading to be evident. It has to be evident for assurance, but mainly because you love them just as Christ loves them. I love that. That is something that God has been teaching me the last few days.

I had to take a few minutes to think about this: I know his love and I know his power to do miracles, but do I show it the way God intended for me to show it?

I wasn’t positive of the answer and I’m still not at all. I have a lot of work to do.
