leadership: an honorable ambition
Starting Spiritual Leadership by J.Oswald Sanders today.All Christians are called to develop God-given talents, to make the most of their lives, and to develop to the fullest their God-given gifts and capabilities.Desiring to excel is not sin. It is motivation that determines ambition's character... Ambition which centers on the glory of God...is a mighty force for good.
These sentences in this first chapter reminded me of the BCS championship game yesterday. (oh my gosh I love college football. So much. Especially THE Ohio State Buckeyes. Rose Bowl champs this year, in case you missed it.) Anyway. If you missed the game, Alabama (#1) played Texas (#2). Colt McCoy, Texas star quarterback, was injured in the first drive of the game and was out for the whole game. And while Texas gave a great effort, they ended up losing the game.
In his interview after the game, McCoy spoke clearly of his faith:
I'd say his ambition is pretty well centered on the glory of God. And is certainly a mighty force for good.
Thanks for exemplifying great leadership for us, Colt McCoy.
