Whom would that be? You probably have trouble choosing only one best leader or feel that none exists in your sight. \u00a0The best leader must have certain qualities to make them outstanding.\u00a0 Generally, people would agree that a good leader should have three significant abilities: first, the ability to articulate the vision of a better world; second, the ability to unite people to work together to achieve that vision. And third, the ability to enable that vision to adapt to the change around them.\u00a0 What do you think? Do you agree?\u00a0 These three elements to constitute a good leader seem to focus on ability and result.\u00a0 As a follower of Christ, what does it mean to be a good leader in God?<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Come join me this Sunday to learn from Nehemiah\u2019s leadership in his project of rebuilding the wall of Jerusalem.\u00a0 We will learn some traits of being a good leader that the modern world may have overlooked.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">Your ministry partner,<br \/>Pastor Amy Yu<\/p>\n<h4>Pray<\/h4>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Dear God, may you give us a clear sight of who we are so that we will choose to lean on your mercy and grace. May you grant us a heart to desire what matters to you, not this world.\u00a0 Transform us with your strength, wisdom and at your timing.\u00a0 Thank you, God, and we love you.\u00a0In Jesus&#8217; name, we pray, Amen.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>   <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scbc.com\/em\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Nehemiah-wk4.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img class=\"wp-image-12302\" style=\"width: 80px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scbc.com\/cm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/acrobatpdf.jpg\" alt=\"\"><font size=\"5\">Devotional<\/font><\/a>   <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nehemiah 5<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":12675,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","ctc_sermon_topic":[],"ctc_sermon_book":[128],"ctc_sermon_series":[533],"ctc_sermon_speaker":[175],"ctc_sermon_tag":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scbc.com\/em\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ctc_sermon\/12822"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scbc.com\/em\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ctc_sermon"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scbc.com\/em\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/ctc_sermon"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scbc.com\/em\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/25"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scbc.com\/em\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12822"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.scbc.com\/em\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ctc_sermon\/12822\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12859,"href":"https:\/\/www.scbc.com\/em\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ctc_sermon\/12822\/revisions\/12859"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scbc.com\/em\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12675"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scbc.com\/em\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12822"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"ctc_sermon_topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scbc.com\/em\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ctc_sermon_topic?post=12822"},{"taxonomy":"ctc_sermon_book","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scbc.com\/em\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ctc_sermon_book?post=12822"},{"taxonomy":"ctc_sermon_series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scbc.com\/em\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ctc_sermon_series?post=12822"},{"taxonomy":"ctc_sermon_speaker","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scbc.com\/em\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ctc_sermon_speaker?post=12822"},{"taxonomy":"ctc_sermon_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scbc.com\/em\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ctc_sermon_tag?post=12822"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
