Whether you lead in ministry, the workplace, or your community, claiming Christian leadership places you under a higher biblical standard. Drawing from Lesson 8 ("Becoming Worthy of Respect") in the Find Her Faithful study, this episode explores the weight of leadership accountability and what it truly means to lead with integrity.

Scripture Focus

• 1 Timothy 3:1–13 — Biblical qualifications for church leaders and deacons, applicable to any believer in a position of influence.
• 1 Timothy 3:9 (Deep Dive) — "They must keep hold of the deep truths of the faith with a clear conscience."

Key Takeaways

• Universal Leadership Standards: The leadership expectations in 1 Timothy 3 aren't just for pastors or church staff; they apply to anyone who identifies as a faith-led leader in business, community, or home life.
• "Keep Hold" Is an Active Discipline: Holding fast to the deep truths of faith is not a one-time milestone—it requires consistent, active study and spiritual maturity.
• The Weight of a Clear Conscience: True leadership integrity requires alignment between private belief and public conduct. You cannot claim to hold deep biblical truths while cutting corners, mishandling authority, or leading poorly behind closed doors.
• A High Calling: Leadership carries spiritual and organizational weight. Saying "yes" to leading others means embracing direct accountability for how you treat your team, handle authority, and represent Christ.
