Chapel - LEADERSHIP Day 3

“If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it. Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.” 1 Corinthians 12:26–27

Part 1 – LEADERS: (11 minutes)

  • Click on this link to watch the video – LEADERS 

Part 2 – Discussion: (25 minutes)

  • Which of these statements are untrue?

    • Leaders differ from influencers in that leaders know they are impacting others and they care about their followers.

    • Leaders are born that way; some are leaders, and some are not.

    • Some ways we can safeguard and discover our identities as leaders are reading scripture, listening to mentors, and taking personality tests.

    • Good leaders define the world and its challenges as they really are and then cast a vision of hope for their followers.

  • Do you agree that influencers are not the same as leaders? Describe a time you saw someone influence others without actually leading them.

  • Why do we need other people to help us discover who we are? What are some specific, practical steps you can take to seek out a mentor?

  • Have you ever seen a leader cast a vision for a group of people? What’s an area of life you are passionate about and where you could see yourself leading others?

Part 3 – Comment: (10 minutes)

    • What can these verses teach us about our identities?

Part 4 – Prayer: (10 minutes)

  • Use this time to pray for each other. You can do that by keeping a prayer request journal or by asking for personal prayer requests or prayers that relate to the day’s topic.

    • Ask each person to share a strength and a weakness in their personality type.

  • Spend your remaining time praying for each other by asking the Lord to use each person’s strengths and to empower personal growth.

Thank you!

Pastor John
