Serving

You need an attitude of service. You’re not just serving yourself. You help others to grow up and you grow with them. (David Green, founder of Hobby Lobby)

Green is a contemporary example of servant leadership who doesn’t just hand out this advice, he lives it. Such an attitude isn’t readily accepted today, and Green has had to defend his principles in court to keep Hobby Lobby stores open. It’s evident that Green follows the ultimate example of this kind of service, Jesus himself.

For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many. (Matthew 20:28)
