What are the defining qualities of a spiritual leader?
For many, leadership is about power and influence. Few leaders are willing to be used by God and do not hesitate to use others. We are starved for what Cheryl Patton in What Made Nehemiah an Effective Leader describes as transformational leaders.
What can Nehemiah teach us about transformational leadership on campus? Nehemiah led from the ruins amidst broken down walls and continuing attack from inside and outside forces. Building spiritual communities on secular campuses is not unlike rebuilding walls that have been rammed and broken down. Developing people and groups that honor God and bless others in places of academic stress and competition is no easy task. It will demand the initiative, dedication, strategic planning, commitment, and most of all the heart of Nehemiah.
