A servant leader is first a servant for Christ, then a servant of his fellow leaders.

1. Servant Leadership

2. • The servant-leader is a servant first.
• It begins with the feeling that one wants to serve, to
serve first. That conscious choice motivates us to want to
lead in order to serve.
• A servant-leader is very different from one who is
leader first. This is because the priority of the leader first
is to satisfy a power drive or to acquire material
possessions.

3. • The difference becomes clear as the servant-first make
sure that other people’s needs are being served.
• Do those served grow as persons? Do they, while being
served, become healthier, wiser, freer, more autonomous,
more likely themselves to become servants?
• Will those whom we serve benefit or be further
deprived?
