leaders lead as loving parents who are there to serve, honor, lift up, equip, and wash feet.

the New Covenant concept of leadership is not built on a hierarchy containing levels of submission. All are equal in the body of Christ, and all submit to all.

Guarding our hearts doesn't mean protecting our hearts from other people, but protecting other people from the overflow of our hearts.

In the New Covenant, submission is never a one-way street.

New Covenant Leaders have influence in the lives of others and live with a commitment to wash feet like Jesus did.

The greater the level of leadership, the greater the amount of service.

grace could deal with their brokenness.

He knew we would not be truly free if we did not have the choice to disobey.

people won't bring their issues into the light if they are not in a freedom zone where people love instead of control.
