We are the Homeschool Community Builders.Together, we have more than 30 years of experience in leading successful homeschool groups.

  • Episode 61: Mindset of a Leader: 4 Characteristics that you Need
    Sep 5 2024

    Do you lack committed board members on your leadership team? Is your board lacking unity? Are you wondering why your board is not functioning smoothly? In today’s episode, we want to focus on the characteristics that are necessary to develop as a leader. These biblical principles are characteristics that God calls all Christians to, but especially as leaders, we need to intentionally consider how these principles can help us serve those who are in our communities and also function as a board in a manner that is worthy to be emulated.

    Integrity - Titus 2:7 ESV

    Show yourself in all respects to be a model of good works, and in your teaching show integrity, dignity

    Courage - Joshua 1:9

    “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”

    Respect - Philippians 2:2-4then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.

    Humility - Ephesians 4:2

    Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.
