It’s going to require laying aside your baggage and stereotypes so you can be open to what God wants to teach you. So regardless of how you view the Holy Spirit, if you want to fully embrace what the Spirit desires to do in you and through your leadership, you may need to unload your pre-conceived baggage first.įrancis Chan, author of Forgotten God, says it like this: “No matter what religious tradition you come from, you likely carry baggage and harbor stereotypes when it comes to the Holy Spirit.
Robert Morris observes, people who are weird with the Holy Spirit were weird before they received the Holy Spirit…they’re just weird people. The truth is, people are weird, not the Holy Spirit. Unfortunately, some leaders view the Holy Spirit as spooky, weird, or even bizarre. During the study, I began to understand the Holy Spirit’s role in leadership too. Last year I studied the Holy Spirit’s role throughout the book of Acts. Because of this temptation, leaders often fail to recognize the role of the Holy Spirit in leadership. This tendency exists in all arenas of leadership whether business, education, media, or the church. It’s very easy in leadership to grow increasingly dependent on our own abilities and skills.
