Andy Stanley
Pastor and author Andy Stanley quoted his father, Charles Stanley, in the opening session. He said, "God takes full responsibility for the life wholly devoted to him." He illustrated this by sharing the story of Joshua, who in his greatest season of leadership continued to kneel before the Lord (Joshua 5:13-15). Andy emphasized that leadership is not about the mark we leave but about the mark God leaves through us!

Essentials for A New Generation of Leaders
1. A good leader models character. Character is what makes you contagious!
2. A good leader is enthusiastically affirming. Enthusiasm and affirmation bring refreshment to weary individuals.
3. A good leader has affection for people. Small frequent acts of kindness and written words of appreciation are essential for a leader to provide.
My favorite quote...."If you don't enjoy people, please, do us all a favor, and don't go into leadership!"

Pastor Matt Chandler reminded us that we are all called to do our part.
