After 39 and a half years of wandering in the desert, Mrs Moses secretly asks for directions.......

I bet Mrs Moses wasn't the only one with doubts. I blogged a while ago about the need for a new kind of leader and have been inpsired recently by article you can find at

http://www. christianity.ca/church/leadership/2005/05.000.html

here's a taste...

"Jesus taught us there should be no "lords" among us but only friends and fellow servants. Unfortunately the modern secular business models we imported into the Church have largely taken precedence, and hierarchy is the norm. In the name of leadership and efficiency we havecontinued to give life to a clerical model that disempowers the people of God from a true priesthood. A the same time our leaders are oftentechnicians and marketing specialists. we need A NEW KIND OF LEADER unconcerned about the issues of marketing and structural maintenance and focused instead on discipleship and transformation, faithfulness, brotherhood and authenticity. We need leaders who are willing to step down into the world.

anyway good article i think. so do check it out.

waiting for the moment on a few practical details to be sorted out b4 I tell you more about the job situation....
