Which Is Worse? What Is Best?
Pastor Chuck Swindoll reminds believers of the centrality of biblical truth and the necessity to handle it responsibly.
Vision, integrity, articulation, courage, and a thick skin—all are the basic requirements for leadership. Other requirements could be added; for the follower of Christ, godliness is essential. Whether in government, business, education, ministry, or the home, these six traits form the foundation of successful Christian leadership. These qualities do not come through osmosis but through disciplined study and practice, often marked by failure. However, the greatest leaders are not deterred by hardship and failure. Theirs is a high calling with deep responsibility.
If you are in a position of leadership—and chances are good that you are—you may need to sharpen your vision for the future, strengthen your integrity, and find new sources of courage. Insight for Living, by introducing you to godly leaders of the past, is committed to encouraging you in this pursuit, as well as challenging you to grow in godliness.

God not only moves in unusual ways, He also moves on uneventful days. He’s just as involved in the mundane events as He is in the miraculous. His hand is in it all.
In an overpopulated world it’s easy to underestimate the value of you, your vote, your convictions, your determination to say, “I stand against this.” Even though you can’t do everything you can do something. It makes a difference.
God is looking for men and women whose hearts are completely His. He wants to use you—you are uniquely placed in your situation to reach people for Christ in your sphere of influence. Never underestimate the difference you can make simply by refusing to blend in. The way you live can help someone find God.
Learn from the past and look to the future to build a life marked by God’s grace and fulfilled potential. As 2 Timothy 3:10–14 reveals, there is a powerful link between remembrance of God’s truths and continuance in God’s ways.
Scripture encourages believers in Jesus Christ to leave behind something of eternal value and infinite worth. Endeavour to reach this high calling and be inspired by Pastor Chuck Swindoll’s exposition of Romans 12:9–16. Discover how the greatest thing you can pass along is a legacy of love!
