Dimensions of an Effective Orthodox Christian Servant Leader

"Always consider yourself as needing instruction so that you may be found

wise throughout your life."

St. Isaac the Syrian

What Is The Biggest Challenge Facing Your Parish?

? Entropy ? Everything in the universe

eventually moves from order to disorder (entropy measures that change) ? If you don't make positive changes

you will get negative changes

"Leaders of a Church will either be risk

takers, caretakers or undertakers."

Pastor Rick Warren

Church Leaders

"The most basic task of the Church leader is to discern the spiritual gifts of all those under his authority, and to encourage those gifts to be used to

the full for the benefit of all.

Only a person who can discern the gifts of others and can humbly rejoice at the flowering of those gifts is fit to

lead the Church."

+ Saint John Chrysostom
