1. Do you feel comfortable being called a leader, and why or why not?
2. Consider the profile of a leader by answering these questions from today's text:
• Was Paul interested in protecting his rights or not, and why? (vs. 1-15)
• What motivated Paul? (v. 16)
• What was Paul willing to do in order to fulfill his mission? (vs. 19-23)
• How did Paul prepare for his mission? (vs. 24-27)
3. The Bible defines leaders as, “Those who can get others to work together” (1 Corinthians 12:28, NLT). “Others” could mean children, co-workers, employees, volunteers, a small group, a team, or the family as a unit. Which of the following statements best reflects your view of yourself as leader, and why?
• I am a leader
• I could be a leader if I was developed
• I want to be a leader
• I am not a leader
