✦ MADE SIMPLE

If someone's going to lead in the church, they need to be someone you can actually look up to — faithful in their marriage, alert and clear-headed, someone who treats people well, welcomes others into their space, and can actually explain things in a way that makes sense.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Church leaders should be the kind of people you'd trust with your biggest problems.
