“The great lie for leaders is the illusion of our self-sufficiency. We can act as if we have sufficient intelligence and knowledge to solve the problems we face and lead our families, churches, or organizations in our own strength. But it’s hard to be arrogant on our knees, where our hearts are reminded that we are first followers, not leaders.”
