Marks of Leadership in Jesus' Ministry (Mark 1:16-35)

Extracted from The Maxwell Leadership Bible

Jesus clearly was a different sort of leader from the scribes and Pharisees of His day. Mark 1 reveals the following qualities in Him:

1. Competence: He took responsibility to "make" them fishers of men (v. 17).

2. Comprehension: He had a thorough understanding of the scriptures (v. 22).

3. Command: He had authority and command of every situation (vv. 25-27).

4. Compassion: He served and healed the pain of others (vv. 30, 31).

5. Communion: He stayed renewed by connecting to the Source of His power (v. 35)
