THE NEED FOR LEADERS

Leadership Training continues to be one of the greatest needs in Namibia.

I like the definition from Blackaby in his book Spiritual Leadership. Leadership  is "moving people onto God's agenda."

The Bible says "my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. " One of the tools available in Namibia to train Christian Leaders is the John Maxwell MLM (Million Leader's Mandate) materials.
 
Last week Winning with People were presented in Windhoek and four Namibians were certified as trainers. In the photo above are Glaudi Kearney, Dawie Fourie (Trainer), Ruben Petrus, Nick Klazen, Jacques Uys, Chrisna von Gericke (Trainer). They are now equiped to move people onto God's agenda.

Leadership takes place in four relationships - with God, self, others and creation; and is guided by four principles - intimacy, integrity, influence and transformation. We need Christian leaders submitted to God, in Christ and empowered by the Holy Spirit to transform Namibia.

Pray for the leaders in Namibia to have a biblical world view, to dillegently apply biblical principles, to equip others and to help bring biblical transformation in all spheres of influence in our country.
