12 Ways to Grow Influence
To the authentic Christian leader, influence isn’t leverage to be exploited… instead, it’s an earned opportunity to gracefully advance, encourage and become!
Light shines in the darkness for the godly. They are generous, compassionate, and righteous.5 Good comes to those who lend money generously and conduct their business fairly. 6 Such people will not be overcome by evil. Those who are righteous will be long remembered. 7 They do not fear bad news; they confidently trust the Lord to care for them. 8 They are confident and fearless and can face their foes triumphantly. 9 They share freely and give generously to those in need. Their good deeds will be remembered forever. They will have influence and honor. Psalm112:4-9
Godly influence flows naturally from those set apart by the purposes of Christ but must still be deliberately cultivated, maintained, shared and replenished.
