1. Good Leaders Must Teach How False Prophets Can Mislead the Gullible and Upset the Faithful by Sandy Shaw
   
   Did you know just how false prophets can mislead the gullible and how they can upset the faithful? This is an exceedingly serious matter. Good leaders will take time to deal with this subject fully and adequately. This section can excite some people! It can also cause confusion. Jesus gave it that we might be taught and instructed accurately. Be discerning. Know what is of God and what is not of God. That is not always easy, but it would be difficult to be clearer. Jesus does not want any one of His disciples to be deceived, or led astray. Every false sect can be traced to a false prophet. This is one of the reasons why we have to know what we believe and why we believe it. When something false, or 'just not right' appears, we require the wisdom and discernment to know, and the courage to speak out.

13. Spiritual Leaders Are Required at Times to Teach Hard and Challenging Lessons From the Word of God by Sandy Shaw
    
    Have you ever been in the depths of despair? In Psalm 130 the writer is crying out to God from the depths of despair. We have mentioned how we can be feeling a bit confident spiritually, and God just drops a little suffering into our lives, and we soon see how we react to that. Think of Peter on that night when he denied knowing Jesus three times. He saw what he was like, having been following Jesus for three years. He realised what he was capable of, and this made him go out and weep, and God has this recorded. Paul would probably have marked himself as 9 out of 10 for spirituality, but some 10 years later he was not so likely to award himself such a high mark. When we see ourselves as we really are, we do need and require everything which He has to give us; not just washing and cleansing and forgiveness, but the robes of righteousness too, so that everything can be adequately dealt with by Jesus Christ, and that we can be equipped and prepared for our task, our ministry, our service in the Kingdom of God.
    
    
14. A Good Spiritual Leader is Prepared to Tackle and Teach the Challenging Passages in the Word of God by Sandy Shaw
    
    As we make our way through the Songs of Ascent in the Psalms which can be found in Psalms 120 to 134 we come to Psalm 130 and this could be accurately subtitled "Revealing ourselves to ourselves". Frequently that can happen, when we are embracing and experiencing suffering. Jesus Christ allows us to see ourselves. There are times when God does lift the veil and when He does allow us to see ourselves as we really are, and as He sees us. What does He see? Pride? Bitterness? Stubbornness? Arrogance? Self-will? Self-pity? Resentment? He may see all kinds of things. When somebody criticises you, and may have a real go at you, if you say to them, as I have done, "If you knew how really bad I was, you would not even speak to me!"

29. Why "Whole Brain" Leadership Works by Max Kazen
    
    Leadership is generally defined as the role that is given to those people in a group or organization who are appointed or elected to direct and/or speak in behalf of a particular group. Leadership styles generally match organizational requirements, and in most of today's organizations, that means "left-brained" dominant, or logical, rational leadership to mass produce the most goods or services at the lowest price.
