Leadership and Intimacy


My Friend Joel sent me the following quote from Henri Nouwen. It is worth think about:

“One thing is clear to me: The temptation of power is greatest when intimacy is a threat. Much Christian leadership is exercised by people who do not know how to develop healthy, intimate relationships and have opted for power and control instead. Many Christian empire-builders have been people unable to give and receive love.”
