The Cost and Calling of Servant Leadership in the Church
What does it truly mean to be a servant leader in the Christian community? In this episode of The Making of a Man, we explore the heart of biblical leadership—not as a position of power or authority, but as a life of love, sacrifice, and service. Jesus set the ultimate example of servant leadership, calling us not to seek recognition but to humbly serve others for the glory of God.
I take you on a personal journey through my own struggles with leadership, faith, and surrender. There was a time in my life when I believed I was doing everything right—attending church, volunteering, tithing—yet my heart still felt restless, weighed down by stress and anxiety. I was going through the motions, thinking my service alone was enough. But God showed me that true leadership isn’t about doing for Him—it’s about being with Him. It’s about surrendering my heart and allowing Him to transform me from the inside out.
Through my own breaking point and ultimate surrender, I discovered that following Jesus comes at a cost. It requires laying down personal desires, comfort, and even control. It’s not always an easy road, but the reward is far greater than anything this world offers. We dive into Jesus’ teachings on the cost of discipleship, exploring passages like Luke 9:57-62 and Luke 10:17-20, which remind us that our greatest joy is not in what we accomplish but in the eternal security we have in Christ.
This episode challenges us to examine our own hearts. Are we leading from a place of love and surrender, or are we simply checking off religious boxes? Are we willing to step up in our churches, not for recognition but out of obedience to God’s call? Whether you’re leading in ministry, mentoring others, or serving in quiet, unseen ways, every act of service matters when it flows from a heart fully devoted to God.
Join me as we unpack the essence of servant leadership and the powerful transformation that happens when we lead with a surrendered heart. If this message resonates with you, share it with someone who needs encouragement in their faith journey. Let’s step into our calling with humility, strength, and a deep love for God and His people.
