continuing his spiritual gift series, Mark Driscoll has posted on the gift of leadership.
Spiritual Gift of Leadership Defined
The spiritual gift of leadership is found in people who have a clear, significant vision from God and are able to communicate it publicly or privately in such a way that they influence others to pursue that vision.
People with the Gift of Leadership
These people tend to gravitate toward the “point position” in a ministry. Others tend to have trust and confidence in their abilities. They best serve others by leading them. They tend to operate with a strong sense of destiny.
