Leaders and followers

I just read the following paragraph from one of the blogs I follow. TJ has much to say about the balance between being a good leader and a good follower.

Click the link at the bottom for the rest of TJ's post.

I am often amazed and saddened by the number of people in Christian ministry who call themselves leaders who really want no authority above them. At its worst it results in narcissism where leaders start to not only ignore the authority above them but to mistreat and violate those who report to them. There is a connection between respect for authority and respect for those for whom we are the authority.
