Great points! Most folks are afraid to be a “leader”. That’s always for someone else. But, what God really wants is for us to be those courageous followers…

Well said Terry. I’ve found you to be one of those leader-followers who can share your heart strongly but still join in with the group and help to make a difference. When this happens we are all better and stronger.

Actually a ‘re-read’ and item of personal thoughts and research. Wish I’d been a better follower at times. It may become part of my dissertation research but this was just me musing.

Bob: It’s an interesting topic. A couple of years ago I did a study on the idea of “following” and concluded God does hold us responsible for who and how we follow. I’d be interested in reading anything additional you publish on the topic.
