A former Prison Warder, Pastor Long as Guest Speaker focused his lesson on defining: The Life-giving Leader.

He started out with the message that his passion is the home/family. According to Pastor Long the Church as we know it today, came from the family.

Pastor Long latter added during the 1-on-1 session,” Covid-19 presented the an opportunity for the ‘Family Church’ to grow.”

In breaking down what The Life-giving Leader is, Pastor Long stated that life is not smooth as leader. It has ups and downs.

“In your life as a leader there are many voices like fear, but you always have to turn to God for help,” said Pastor Long.

With participants engaging Pastor Long, the class came up with various views on what The Life-giving Leader is, like:

The Life-giving Leader is a King; and here a Queen can be added as well.

The Life-giving Leader is a Healer.

The Life-giving Leader is a Helper.

The Life-giving Leader is a Protector.

The Life-giving Leader Unites.

The Life-giving Leader is prepared to lay down his/her own life for his sheep.

The Life-giving Leader is is a Provider.

The Life-giving Leader is a Coach/Mentor.

The Life-giving Leader is a Teacher.

The Life-giving Leader is a Peace Maker.

Pastor Long also noted that the success of a tree is to produce fruit and trees, to cause other trees to multiply.

“God is a tree & we are branches of the tree,” said the great Pastor, “We as branches depend on the tree. The tree is Christ. Just like branches we must depend on Christ.”

In another session class defined who is a leader.

The participants with Pastor Long noted that there are different leaders with different roles.

“There are different leaders, some lead people the wrong way, others lead people the write way,” added Pastor Long.

The participants then joined in with diverse definitions like leaders come as Parents; Uncles/Aunts; Prison Wardens, Cashier/Staff at Shops, Employee/Employer; Neighbours, Family, Co-Workers among others.

Pastor Long further commented: “You can’t love people, if you don’t love God. To love people is to do good works.”

In addition, “In the life of a ‘Worldly’ leader the centre is the ‘Self’. But The Life-giving Leader the centre of his/her life is God and serving the people,” said Pastor Long.

Pastor Long continued, he said the reason there are so many prisoners is because of broken families.
