Spiritual leadership must begin at home. (1 Timothy 3:4-5)

1 Timothy 3:4-5

New Living Translation (NLT)

⁴ He must manage his own family well, having children who respect and obey him. ⁵ For if a man cannot manage his own household, how can he take care of God’s church?

 

 

Christian workers and volunteers sometimes make the mistake of thinking their work is so important that they are justified in ignoring their families. Spiritual leadership, however, must begin at home. If a man is not willing to care for, discipline, and teach his children, he is not qualified to lead. Don't allow your volunteer activities to detract from your family responsibilities.
