“The key principle, however, is this: power must be exercised wholly for the benefit of others and not for the benefit of the leader. Christian leadership, modelled on Jesus’ leadership, is self-giving, not self- serving.”
Marcus Honeysett, Powerful Leaders?: When Church Leadership Goes Wrong And How to Prevent It

“It is quite possible for leaders to become self-promoting without realizing it. Over time, defending their reputation becomes important to retaining and growing control. They become harder to disagree with because of the combination of the control they exert within the formal structure and the relational support they can gather privately outside of it.”
Marcus Honeysett, Powerful Leaders?: When Church Leadership Goes Wrong And How to Prevent It

“The antidote to a culture of self- promoting leaders is one where leaders – and everyone else – repent often and forgive often, delighting themselves in the Lord, praying and praising him for the glory of his wonderful grace. A culture, therefore, in which leaders can lead out of weakness, no longer needing to be impressive or having to prove themselves to receive praise and affirmation from people.”
Marcus Honeysett, Powerful Leaders?: When Church Leadership Goes Wrong And How to Prevent It

“There is little that Satan hates more than godly repentance.”
Marcus Honeysett, Powerful Leaders?: When Church Leadership Goes Wrong And How to Prevent It

“While Christians do have a general duty to be soft-hearted, forgiveness is dependent on repentance. To forgive in the absence of repentance is to validate sinful behaviour. And even when someone does genuinely repent, and forgiveness is appropriate, there should be no obligation to remain under their leadership – nor for them to remain in leadership.”
