Benchmark – Personal Biblical Theology Of Leadership: The Leadership Constitution

In developing a biblically founded, theologically consistent leadership style, it is helpful to prepare a mission and vision statement of how you will lead. Using Appendix C in Overcoming the Dark Side of Leadership, as well as consulting with your ministry supervisor, you will develop a Leadership Constitution. In a 1,250-1,500-word essay, address the following:

1. Personal biblical leadership statement based upon the doctrine of your faith tradition and area of church ministry
2. Brief analysis and summary of your Christian leadership style in relationship to your ministry based on biblical, theological, missional, and ethical considerations
3. Personal statement as to how you will live in the light to maintain/increase biblical leadership effectiveness
4. Personal commitment and explanation as to how you will lead from a position of a loving heart, even when facing difficult leadership situations and scenarios
5. Personal explanation of the importance of how biblical leadership increases the effectiveness of leadership in different environments
6. Personal statement of how to defend against pitfalls or bounce back from shortfalls in a biblically consistent manner that includes taking ownership/responsibility

Cite Class Resources, at least two scholarly references, and three to five biblical reference to support your position.
