The Spiritual Leader – Loren Cunningham The YWAM Christian Teaching Podcast

    • Christianity

In this episode of the Youth With A Mission Teaching Podcast Loren Cunningham shares with us a teaching about being The Spiritual Leader.



Loren Cunningham is the founder of Youth With A Mission (YWAM) and the co-founder of the University of the Nations (U of N). He is also a leader at the YWAM, U of N Campus in Hawaii, and a member of the YWAM International Eldership.



Loren speaks on this teaching about leadership and draws a parallel to the shepherd:



“Know well the condition of your flock and pay attention to your herds” (Prov 27: 23).



He emphasises the great responsibility of leadership and discusses the different roles that a leader must carry. He speaks of the leader’s responsibility to obey God in action, and submit to God and others, in heart.

Then the word of the LORD came to me saying, “Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel. Prophesy and say to those shepherds, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD, “Woe, shepherds of Israel who have been feeding themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the flock? “You eat the fat and clothe yourselves with the wool, you slaughter the fat sheep without feeding the flock. “Those who are sickly you have not strengthened, the diseased you have not healed, the broken you have not bound up, the scattered you have not brought back, nor have you sought for the lost; but with force and with severity you have dominated them. “They were scattered for lack of a shepherd, and they became food for every beast of the field and were scattered. “My flock wandered through all the mountains and on every high hill; My flock was scattered over all the surface of the earth, and there was no one to search or seek for them.”’ (Ezekiel 34:1-7)
