Preamble
There are two biblical metaphors used to illustrate godly leadership by our Lord Jesus Christ. One is a servant, and the other is a shepherd. Both metaphors reveal the motive for leading. The motive question is central to leading like Jesus.
The central question for the episode is ‘What does servant leadership look like and how would you know a servant leader when you see one?’
Everyone should know if their personal motive as a leader is to serve or to be served. Servant leaders are not after the throne (to be served); rather they serve God and humanity
