How Maria Led – Lessons from a matriarch of label A General of God in the late 1800’s early 1900’s

“...You can’t do a ministry like this, if you’re afraid to take risk and if you’re afraid of what people might think about you.”

“You cannot build unity and revival by compromising the truth you know.” She did not compromise the call of God under persecution.

What is a true leader?

Myles Munroe in his book the “spirit of leadership” attributes leadership to the following statements:

1. True leadership is an attitude rather than a title, it inspires rather than manipulates or controls?

2. Leadership is not a pursuit but a result?

3. Leadership is not a label you give yourself. Leadership is a privilege given by the followers

4. Leaders inspire by expressing their inner passion, which resonates with others and causes

   them to join in pursuing the leaders vision

5. The source of inspiration in a leader is “passion”

6. True leadership passion is discovery of belief, reason, idea, conviction, a cause not to just

   live for, but to die for, which focuses on benefiting mankind as a whole

7. Passion comes from purpose

8. Leaders are often ordinary people who accept or are placed under extraordinary

   circumstances that bring forth their latent potential, producing a character that inspires

   confidence and trust within others.
