What emerges from tracing the theme of leadership through the biblical record is a servanthood pattern, one that is wholly distinct from prevailing secular models. Our exposition begins with the biblical language of the servant. Eleven Old Testament and five New Testament leaders are profiled. The portrait of Jesus Christ focuses on three motifs that governed His training of the twelve for kingdom ministry. The Pauline letters are mined for those convictions that governed Paul's practice of leadership. The final chapter offers a summary profile of the servant leader, one whose character, motives, and agenda align with the divine purposes
