We dive into 1 Samuel 1-4, looking at how Samuel responded to a corrupt leadership in the house of the Lord.

• John Mark’s view of Paul and Barnabas
• Solomon’s view of his father David from a young age
• Joseph’s Parents did not believe in him
• - Zechariah 3
• Responding to our leaders who fail

• Followers who fail only impact themselves, leaders who fail impact those who follow and themselves.
• The difference in the world’s mindset of disqualification vs failure
• Good leaders accept failure as a lesson to enhance the process and grow deeper relational equity with their followers. Failure is what doesn’t work and success is what does work.
• Humility allows leaders to consider other people’s thoughts, ideas, and perspectives as they navigate failure. It leads to improved listening, greater compassion, and the opportunity for increased collaboration. In so doing, the leader demonstrates vulnerability by being more relatable to followers.
• Failure shapes the leader by enhancing their level of self-awareness and emboldens their character by illustrating the ongoing need for reinvention.
• Leaders who fail to demonstrate humility, vulnerability, and courage are leaders who fail consistently.
• Weakness vs failure
• David, the Repentance becomes a psalm 55
• 2nd Samuel 24. The threshold becomes the temple. David’s humility.
