John A., John M. Wayne, Darien, Dan and I just finished pastor’s meeting.
Dan brought panera.
We discussed this article on humility and approachability by Ken Sande.
The bagels were good.
The article was good but painful.
Here is just one portion where I highlighted and notated an “ouch” in the margin:
Many leaders conceal a proud attitude under a demeanor of humility, which is not the same as actual humility. One of the many evidences of actual humility is the inclination to “consider others better than yourself,” which results in valuing their thoughts and interests as highly as your own (Phil. 2:3-4). A closely related evidence of humility is to sincerely welcome critique and correction, no matter who brings the “observation” (Prov. 13:10, 17:10).
