Steering New Students Away From Leadership
I have very few “pocket speeches” that I pull out and use over and over again.
I find that every student is unique, as is their situation, and it (and they) deserves to be treated as such.
However, at the start of every new school year there is one speech (conversation is probably a more accurate description) that I seem to present over and over and over again…
When new students approach me about finding a place to lead (and more specific to our campus — to lead worship) I tell them all the same thing:
Find a place to belong first, then look for ways to invest your gifts.
