Biblical Theology for Leadership Capstone Jim Wieties Integrating leadership God’s way into my life is what is most important.

Jesus. His life was completely lived to serve the course of the Father through reaching out to the disciples. He trained and gave them confidence to move into leadership and do even greater tasks (John 14:12-14).
