The Psychology of Leadership.

The Psychology of Leadership.

True leadership is more than just keeping your people safe during a time of danger. It's about giving them a real sense of protection and assurance from harm, despite the dangers facing the country. It's about making the right decisions to protect the marginalized and the vulnerable, while keeping the rest of the public safe, good leaders will always reassure the people, not leaving them more vulnerable or even worse, left to die. Good leaders always recognize the Sovereignty of God in a crisis and personally ask for the assistance of God, despite the public backlash for doing so. Leaders are not just entrusted with the financial well being of the people, but also of the spiritual wellbeing of her people. In History the best leaders have always been believers in some form of a God.

Good leaders face uncertainty with faith, not with more uncertainty, also willing to give up their comfort for the comfort of the people. Good leaders always acknowledge their own weaknesses and sins, in order to make themselves available to the help that comes from a higher power. Good leadership isn't perfect but always strives to protect and comfort. Good leaders should put the people's needs before themselves to assure the people that they will be safe, and are in good hands. They will always acknowledge their own inability to solve a problem, but will reassure the people that they have faith that with God's help, anything is possible.

In times of crisis, good leadership will put their own agendas aside, in order to calm and protect the people. They will always acknowledge that evil and sin exist, and they will put measures in place that will protect the faith of her people, not destroy it. Good leadership will not interfere with the free exercise of religion, and will strive to protect the faith of the common man, not necessarily the exulted man.

Good leadership always administers justice with mercy, and in a judgment will always keep in mind the vulnerability of the one accused. Good leadership is a grace of God, and always wins the admiration and favour of the people not by force, but by goodwill. Good leadership will not take away the rights of her people even in a crisis, but will strive to find solutions to the problem, while maintaining the freedom of the nation which has been entrusted to them by God alone.

Catholic Identity.

I was born into the Catholic Church and was baptized as an infant, I had my first communion and reconciliation as a child, and was confirmed as a teenager. Although I was never devout, I accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Saviour when I was 21 through an evangelical Christian radio ministry, which in turn gave new life to my Catholic faith. Although I remained a Catholic, I identified as a born again Christian. It wasn’t until much later in my life that I learned the difference between the two denominations and what they taught about being born again. Regardless, there was a significant change in my life back then, which continues to this day. Being Catholic is much like an identity to me and I remember growing up under the papacy of St. Pope John Paul II. The culture I grew up in was largely affected by his papacy, and the way the culture viewed the church was significantly different from the way the current culture views it. Growing up, the pope didn’t try to be rele...

Age of Brokenness.

We are living in an age of brokenness, no matter what age you are, you probably have been touched with relationships falling apart, which causes more and more people to live in isolation. In this generation there is less of an incentive to heal and reconcile relationships, but that doesn’t excuse the amount of people who are broken. Why people don’t seem to be motivated to heal relationships is because our beliefs about faith and God have changed, really giving us less of an incentive to do what our religion says. If I act from my personal beliefs, but the person that I am responding to has abandoned religious beliefs, than the response to my wanting things to be better can be misinterpreted and rejected then by someone else. Generally when a society has expectations about broken relationships, loneliness and isolation, and the beliefs are generally accepted, society becomes a more compassionate society, because all value the same things. When religious values are undermined and ...

The Biblical Meaning of “Life in the Spirit.”

“Life in the Spirit” is an example that the Apostle Paul gives in the book of Romans starting in chapter 5 and going through to chapter 8. He begins by telling us we are justified by faith (5:1), and have gained access by faith into the grace of God (5:2). We have been delivered from God’s wrath (5:9) and we have been reconciled to God through the death of His Son (5:10). He goes on to explain that through Adam all die (5:12), and that the free Gift of God brings justification and righteousness to the believing sinner (5:15-17). Through our conversion we are baptized into Christ and into his death, which frees us from the law and makes us dead to sin (6:2-4). He explains that just as Christ was raised from the dead, we are given new life in Christ (6:4). Our old unregenerate self was crucified with Christ so that our body of sin might be done away with (6:5-6). Because we have died to sin, we now submit ourselves to God being that we are now under grace, not the law (6:8-1...
