Leadership’ is a word shared by Christians and non-Christians alike, but this does not mean that their concept of it is the same. On the contrary, Jesus introduced into the world a new style of servant-leadership.

Christian leadership is the process whereby servants use their credibility and capability to influence people in a particular context to pursue their God-given direction.
