Leaders see people as they really are, as God’s workmanship crafted with a unique purpose in human history.
Whether a believer or not, leaders see every human being as a reflection of the Creator, brimming with potential. Leaders look into people’s hearts and lives and help reveal to them their beauty and worth.
What do you really [...]

Many people have been commenting on my Faux-Hawk recently. To be quite honest, since I shaved my head, my hair just started growing back this way. I wake up, and there it is. I’ve never put any product in it. I didn’t even know what a faux-hawk was [...]

This is a repost from my old blog, but worth retelling.

Leaders must not only take responsibility of their own lives, but that of others around them. As leaders progress in their journey they see things as they really are.
