Leaders in biblical higher education hear many different theories and terms about leadership, so many that it can be difficult to decide what is the best way to pursue one’s goals. Our guest today, Kirk Brothers, the president of Heritage Christian University, has a suggestion — define spiritual leadership. He discusses how the examples of leadership that Christ can bring us closer to this answer.
By examining Christ’s example, Kirk also shares insights into how one should lead for God — not themselves — how to set goals for a Christian educational institution, and how to view youth and family ministry.
Join us as we discuss:
[8:10] The relationship between youth and family ministry
[14:12] The importance of defining leadership terms
[21:49] What Christian higher education should strive for
