I understand that many like this event. I understand why. It feeds the flesh. Who wouldn't want to hear about six million dollar severance packages and how to go from good to great? You can get this sort of thing every day in the world. People make their living selling carnal leadership principles. The problem with this one it is driven by the church. It is the church selling the carnality. It is the church cozying up to the best the world has to offer and asking them for advice. The Bible says that friendship with the world is adultery towards God. You want to understand Biblical leadership? Find someone who correctly handles the Word of God and lives a life that proves it. God does not make these things as difficult as we usually do. When we find that person, imitate their faith. Handle the Word as they do. Live an uncompromising life as they do. You can keep your slick marketing and inverted leadership pyramids. Give me someone who understands and glorifies Jesus. I will follow that. I will follow that to the glory of God; not the schemes of man.
