Welcome back to another episode of the Blessed and Bossed Up podcast, presented by Anchored Media! This entrepreneurship podcast is designed for Christians seeking to make God the CEO of their businesses. Today, we kick off the first installment of our new Blessed and Bossed Up Book Club, diving into Leadership as an Identity by Dr. Crawford L. Loritts.

In This Episode:

  • After finishing Battlefield of the Mind by Joyce Meyer, we’re starting a new book focused on the four traits of godly leadership: brokenness, uncommon communion, servanthood, and radical obedience.
  • Dr. Loritts discusses how leadership is a calling from God, requiring traits that go beyond skills and abilities. The person God trusts with leadership is the person who can fulfill His divine assignments.
  • We talk about how this book is especially timely as we approach the new year. Now is the perfect time to evaluate our leadership roles and focus on becoming leaders who honor God’s standards, not just the world’s.

What We Discuss:

  1. Introduction to the Book:
  • Dr. Crawford L. Loritts was initially hesitant about writing this book, believing enough leadership books existed. However, after teaching a leadership class, he realized the need for this unique perspective on Christian leadership.
  1. The Four Leadership Traits:
  • Brokenness
  • Uncommon Communion
  • Servanthood
  • Radical and Immediate Obedience
  1. Phases of Leadership:
  • Learning (Ages 20-40): Focus on flexibility, growth, and remaining open to God's direction.
  • Leveraging (Ages 40-60): Balancing success with humility, staying diligent, and not becoming complacent.
  • Leaving (Ages 60+): Preparing the next generation by sharing wisdom and experiences while continuing to serve.
  1. Key Perspectives on Leadership:
  • The importance of avoiding the secularization of Christian leadership and keeping a God-centered approach in all leadership tasks.
  • Understanding that godly leadership is not about position or fame but about fulfilling God's assignments.

Why This Book Matters: As Christian entrepreneurs, leaders, and business owners, it's critical to align our leadership with biblical principles, ensuring that everything we do is for God's glory and not for worldly success. This episode challenges you to reflect on your leadership style and commit to leading with purpose, guided by God’s direction.

Next Steps:

  • We will be covering Chapters 1-7 through December 2, 2024, before taking a podcast break. Get your copy of Leadership as an Identity to follow along and dive deeper into these powerful insights on godly leadership.
