Choose leaders who are up to the task

Exodus 18:13-27 | Moses can’t do it all by himself. Nor is he meant to. And so we see hints of the Reformation principle of the Priesthood of All Believers.

But it’s not a free-for-all. Moses’ father-in-law Jethro gives wise counsel. Some have the capacity to lead groups of thousands. Some have the capacity to lead groups of hundreds. Some have the capacity to lead groups of fifties. Some have the capacity to lead groups of tens.

Everyone has a different role to play. But not everyone is capable of filling a role just because it’s open. Choose leaders who are up to the task.
