When Leaders Lose Their Souls (Numbers 12:7-8)
• Ministry ≠ Relationship with God
• Are future leaders truly children of God who desire to dwell in God’s presence?
• Keep Seeking God no matter the cost
What Lies Beneath (Exodus 2:11-12, 15)
• Leaders must look in & acknowledge the dark parts of their souls. What lies beneath the surface matters!
• Silence & Solitude is where God does His best work

8- Spiritual Rhythms in the Life of the Leader
• The bondage of busyness in Christian leadership. Rhythms of engagement and retreat. Times of retreat give us a chance to rest in God and wait on him to do what is needed. The more active leadership is required of us, the more silence we need.
9- Leadership as Intercession
• The battle is won on the basis of intercessory prayer for those God has given us to lead.

The Place of our own Conversion (Exodus 2:22)
Moses remained in solitude for 40 years. Hidden questions of identity were brought into the light. Our reactions are more connected to our past than to what is actually going on in the present situation. Solitude exposes what’s hidden in our soul & makes us confront our sin patterns/ crutches.
A leader needs to experience freedom before leading others to freedom.
