As things begin to unfold in "Fuzzy Leadership" one may begin to feel as if the tale is a form of deconstruction. Which it is not. It is intended solely for construction. Perhaps along the line of reformation (which is greatly needed).
In the conversation, I will by necessity cover some of the misuses and abuses of leadership within Ekklesia. However it may seem that I am "pointing the finger" as such. Be it known however that I am well aware that anytime I point a finger that there are three other fingers of that same hand pointing back at myself.
I.E.: I know of the misuses and abuses of leadership in Ekklesia because of my own failings in that very area.
"Mia Culpa" . . .
In this Journey we suffer bumps, bruises and wounding. And it is inevitable that we inflict our own share of that upon others. God grant us the grace to ask and offer forgiveness to one another for that.
But it must not end there. A realization of the Ephesian 4:13 calling includes a Kingdom perspective of leadership.
Without a paradigm shift in that realm, we will only re-create the same problems in a variant form of the Matrix ~ box ~ stronghold ~ prison ~ grave.
