The biblical leader climbs down, not up. Mark 10:42-45
Five marks of a biblical leader, the qualities that grow around them, the threats that quietly erode them, and one Sunday morning to practice on. About thirty minutes on your own, an hour with a team. Every passage is one tap away.
Running this with a group? Here is a 60-minute plan.
0:00
Open. Pray, then read Mark 10:42-45 aloud. Ask the room what climbing down looks like on your team. 5 min.
0:05
LEADS. Walk the five steps together. Everyone rates themselves privately; nobody shares a number. 15 min.
0:20
Qualities. Each person tags one strength and one growth edge, then trades with a neighbor. 10 min.
0:30
Threats. Run the Threat Radar on a screen and vote as a room. Talk about the one closest to home. 10 min.
0:40
Role play. Switch to Group mode. Talk each scene out before anyone taps. 15 min.
0:55
Take it with you. Everyone writes one commitment and one person to invest in, then saves the card. Close in prayer. 5 min.
Take it with you
Your pocket card is built from what you did here: your LEADS shape, the qualities you tagged, the threats you named, and how the Sunday morning went. Add two lines and keep it.
