If the church is to be credible as it communicates the message of the good news of the reign of God, it must demonstrate the values of the kingdom, including humility, honesty, integrity, purity of life, justice and compassion. Not only must leaders explain these values and qualities in light of the baptismal covenant, they themselves must model such qualities and live in relationships of mutual accountability with the churches they serve. Such an understanding of leadership has profound implications for the identification of potential leaders and for the way they are trained.~Eddie Gibbs from his book, LeadershipNext (one of the textbooks in our Church Administration class this semester).
