Hebrews 13:7

How strongly do you value your team’s leadership?  Is their behavior, on and off the field of competition, something that you would imitate?  Let’s think together about team leadership.

A great lesson in leadership comes to us in Hebrews chapter 13 and verse 7 where we read, “Remember those who rule over you, who have spoken the word of God to you, whose faith follow, considering the outcome of their conduct.”

The way to think clearly about your leaders’ conduct is to consider the outcome of that conduct.  What is the natural outcome of their lives?  If he or she continues along the same line, how will his or her life turn out?  That may help you determine those whom you should imitate and which live seemingly as a warning to the rest.

If you’re a team leader, give some careful consideration to your own life.  Is your life one that you’d like to have the younger players to imitate?  If you’re one of those younger players, give careful consideration to those with whom you’ll spend your time and whose lifestyles you’d be well served to emulate.

Let’s give our teammates great examples to follow on the field of competition today.  Great plays and courageous effort are contagious.
