VIRTUE OF THE MONTH
The Servant Leader
Takes Initiative for Others.
A servant leader:
● Uses the position and power of leadership to serve others
● Knows what it means that the last will be first
● Serves others even when it is unpopular
● Stands firm in God’s truth in an uncertain world
● Understands leadership is more courageous than comfortable
● Sees a need and meets a need and gets others involved
Key Verse: “Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of others.” - Philippians 2:3-4
Books
The journey from boy to man is a big adventure—and an important one. That’s why PDS published The 7 Virtues of Manhood, Flight Plan, and Building Boys with Spiritual Habits. These books are designed to show our boys what it means to be a godly man and how to live that out in the choices they make today and throughout their teenage years.
