In today’s episode, we’re diving into something every Christian leader needs — people skills.
As Christian leaders, our people skills are not just practical — they’re spiritual. Jesus Himself said the greatest commandment is to love God and love people.
Key Verse: Colossians 3:12 — “Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.”
5 People Skills Every Christian Leader Needs
*Listen to the episode to learn more*
1. Active Listening
2. Empathy
3. Emotional Intelligence
4. Clear, Grace-Filled Communication
5. Leading with Humility
How to Lead with People Skills — Even When It’s Hard
When it gets hard:
- Pray before you speak.
- Ask the Holy Spirit for wisdom.
- Remember that every person is made in the image of God — even the difficult ones.
And when you get it wrong because we all do, be quick to apologize. That alone can transform a relationship.
Reflection + Action Steps
- Who in your life or leadership role do you need to reconnect with?
- Where might God be calling you to communicate more clearly, or with more compassion?
- How can you reflect Jesus in every conversation this week?
