Called to Lead

"He gave them power and authority to drive out all demons and to cure diseases, and he sent them out to preach the kingdom of God and to heal the sick." Luke 9:1a-2

Most people are amazed that Frontiers does not seek to control leaders; we develop and release them.

Leadership expert Warren Bennis said, “The most dangerous leadership myth is that leaders are born—that there is a genetic factor to leadership. This myth asserts that people simply either have certain charismatic qualities or not. That's nonsense; in fact, the opposite is true. Leaders are made rather than born.”

We want to free leaders from the bureaucratic red tape that can hinder them, providing the tools they need to lead teams starting new work. Frontiers encourages and develops future leaders toward an effective, God-honoring attitude of service.

Frontiers rises and falls with its leaders. The message of Jesus goes where it has not yet gone if leaders step forward to lead a team in the effort. At the core of Frontiers is our community of team leaders. They carry the burden and responsibility for their teams’ health and progress in the work.

In our halls, we talk about “apostolic leaders.” We talk about those who have been seized by Romans 15:20-21 – “It has always been my ambition to preach the Gospel not where Christ is already named, but, as it is written, ‘They who have no news of Him shall see, and they who have not heard will understand.’”
