Proverbs 21:4 (The Message) “Arrogance and pride – distinguishing marks in the wicked – are just plain sin.”
4. The Biggest Temptation of a Leader.
No question about it, one of the greatest struggles a leader can face is Arrogance and pride. I recently made the comment to some pastor friends of mine that, “the ministry is an extremely prideful place.” There’s just something about the ministry that causes good men (& women) to get prideful, territorial & insecure.
I want to be a leader that checks pride and arrogance at the door. There’s a big difference between walking in a God Confidence in what you’re called to be and to do and being arrogant or prideful.
Learning the difference can often be the difference maker between a leadership legacy of mediocrity and greatness for God.
Deep… very deep.
