Introduction to the leadership program. (Philippians 2:2-5 NKJV) fulfill my joy by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. {3} Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. {4} Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others. {5} Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, An additional meaning of the Greek word translated "esteem." (Psalms 78:70-72 NKJV) He also chose David His servant, And took him from the sheepfolds; {71} From following the ewes that had young He brought him, To shepherd Jacob His people, And Israel His inheritance. {72} So he shepherded them according to the integrity of his heart, And guided them by the skillfulness of his hands. Importance of both leadership skills and integrity.  Godly leaders must have both.
