Leaders Make Leaders

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.
— Matthew 28:19-20 (NIV)

Mahatma Ghandi said, “A sign of a good leader is not how many followers you have, but how many leaders you create.”

While Jesus walked this earth He had a tremendous following, but His goal was to make leaders. He knew His ministry would be more effective if He taught His disciples how to lead the way He led. Christ gave us the power to love, heal, and restore just as He does. When He instructs us to “go and make disciples,” He didn’t mean thoughtless followers. He wants us to teach people everything He taught us. Good leaders create good leaders by example. And as we celebrate the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. today, reflect on how he too led by example and how using his philosophy can help us create leaders of today.
