This morning I was reading 1 Chronicles 28 where David is encouraging Solomon about his responsibility to be the one to build the Temple. Chapter 28 & 29 are a fascinating look into David’s heart as a leader who is replacing himself. It’s a case study in transferring trust and authority to a new leader. […]

Last week I had the privilege of leading devotions for our Leadership Development Community that we’re a part of with Leadership Network.
