Passage to memorizeLuke 12: 32-34
Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will not be exhausted,
where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. Where your treasure is, there your heart will be
also.

Jonah and his values: Jonah 4:1-11
• Jonah failed to match his values with God’s values.
• Is your personal vision in line with God’s wants?

Values talk easy but lives hard• Matthew 22:37. Love
the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your sole and with all your mind.
• That is the prism through which all other values must shine, the filter which all life choices are made and solutions are drawn. Meditate Psalm 103.

• Having a sense of destiny• Vertical and horizontal thinking
Leadership Principles from God’s Word: ValuesLeadership Principles from God’s Word: Values
Reality• Being in touch with the real world,
with the facts, with the truth• To be realistic means to think rather
than feel; to be objective, not subjective, rational, not irrational
• Understand, accept and cope with the realities of your specific ministry
• Being in touch with people
Leadership Principles from God’s Word: ValuesLeadership Principles from God’s Word: Values
Ethics• People matter to you• Morality, integrity are really
important to you• Ethics means that you can be and
are interested in seeing the world from another person’s point of view

Seven Values of Servant Leadership(Agapao)
• Humility• Concern for others• Controlled discipline• Seeking what is right and good for the
organisation• Showing mercy in beliefs and actions• Focusing on the purpose of the organisation• Creating and sustaining peace
Leadership Principles from God’s Word: ValuesLeadership Principles from God’s Word: Values
Humility• Understand that followers may know
more about the process and have more insights into what needs to be done
• Only the humble can be teachable• Leaders can have the ‘trappings’ of
leadership as long as they don’t ‘believe’ in the trappings
Leadership Principles from God’s Word: ValuesLeadership Principles from God’s Word: Values
Concern for Others• Provide for the safety, physical, social,
self-esteem, self-actualisation needs of the employee
• This can be done by paying a living wage and intervening with more support when needed– A living wage provides for the daily living
costs for a reasonable life – not poverty and not luxury – but a reasonable life
Leadership Principles from God’s Word: ValuesLeadership Principles from God’s Word: Values
Controlled Discipline
• Think before you act– Never act out of anger – let the anger
subside first, then consider the action• Act in ways that bring improvement –
not retribution– Fear usually suppresses behavior but
does not shape real change
Leadership Principles from God’s Word: ValuesLeadership Principles from God’s Word: Values
Seeking What Is Right and Good for the Organisation
• Leaders lead out of a sense of calling – or ‘vocare’– not out of a sense of self-
aggrandizement or potential rewards– rewards may come – but this is not the
focus of the leader• Leaders seek the greater well-being
of the organisation and all those affected by the organisation
Leadership Principles from God’s Word: ValuesLeadership Principles from God’s Word: Values
Show Mercy
• Mercy seasons justice and considers all the factors
• A follower may deserve punishment as a result of his/her actions, but what is the best action overall– what was the reason for the actions in
the first place?
Leadership Principles from God’s Word: ValuesLeadership Principles from God’s Word: Values
Be Focused on the Purpose of the Organisation• Leaders focus attention on
improving the organisation and all those in it
• Leaders focus on what is good for the organisation and all those affected by it– short-term gain may be ignored for
long-term gain
Leadership Principles from God’s Word: ValuesLeadership Principles from God’s Word: Values
Create and Sustain Peace• Leaders seek to build organisations that
are peaceful• Conflict still occurs but the organisation
values the quick resolution of conflict– when everyone in the organisation is
focused on the improvement of the organisation resolving conflict also looks at the greater good rather than the self-enrichment
Leadership Principles from God’s Word: ValuesLeadership Principles from God’s Word: Values
Servant Leadership
• Servant Leaders– Do what is right for the followers– If the organisation does well – good!– If the organisation does not do well, the
servant leader still serves the followers• How can this work?
Leadership Principles from God’s Word: ValuesLeadership Principles from God’s Word: Values
It is up to you. Make the difference wherever you go
Leadership Principles from God’s Word: ValuesLeadership Principles from God’s Word: Values

temporal5. Don’t sweat the small stuff
Leadership Principles from God’s Word: ValuesLeadership Principles from God’s Word: Values
To summarise: The first task of a servant leader is to define values

something give it9. Stay true to your convictions; don’t
wander from the narrow path10. Obedience to God is the only sure

Prayer Focus• I am in the world but I am not
of the world. • God of peace, I ask you to
sanctify me in every way, and may my whole spirit and soul and body kept blameless until that day when our Lord Jesus Christ comes gain.

Learning, application and commitment: James 1: 22-25
• “Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves.
• Do what it says. • Anyone who listens to the word but does not do
what it says is like a man who looks at his face in the mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like.
• But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it - he will be blessed in what he does.” (NIV)
