GROWTH MINISTRIES OF A LEADER THE LEADER AS A GUIDE True spiritual guide, (Psalm 23) False guide (Matthew 23: 16, 23; 1 Kings 16:2,19,26) The goal of leader’s guide is not to tell believers what they should do or where they should go, but to put them in the very center of God’s will with complete obedience to His Word.
