In the Name of Jesus is a book by Henri Nouwen, one of my all time favorites. The following are temptations that he mentions leaders especially will go through....
The temptation to be Spectacular!!!!
THe temptation to be relevant!!!!
THe Temptation to be powerful!!!
I've been feeling these more lately. Especially as I become an intern at church, I've been sensing these more. Who doesn't want to be amazing? The type of amazing where I would get glory. How pathetic. I want to be spectacular, I want to be amazing, i want to be powerful. Am i so insecure? Is God's love nothing but an abstract concept? What disordered priorities i have. Who am i living for?
In the name of Jesus? Probably not. Thank God for grace.
