Friday’s Reflection

SPIRITUAL LEADERSHIP is simply the sharing of the presence of God as that presence is experienced, noticed, and named — a process that occurs through the prayer life of the leader. … As Christ lives in you, he leaders and guides you in whatever way is appropriate for your state of being. As this occurs you become a spiritual leader.
