TTP – Platoon Leader

[…] suppose the best TTP is to get an accountability partner to keep you straight in servant leadership and personal lifestyle, but I have not been blessed with an accountability partner since West Point.   First Lieutenant Carolyn Martin is  a platoon leader with 212th Military Police in Kitzingen, Germany. She  spent nine months in Kosovo, and was a part of the OCF […]

Preparing for Active Duty

[…]of a biblical family in military leadership. You will begin to develop an understanding of servant leadership (to serve versus be served). One lieutenant visited colleges within 100 miles and helped establish OCF groups at those schools. Others have discipled new believers. Still others have joined our chapel choirs and praise bands. Whatever ministry the Lord has for you, become a part of our OCF/base chapel team. Our vision of a spiritually transformed military is the chaplain’s vision, too, and your leadership and skills will be a great help to them. Chaplains don’t have elders. They don’t have deacons. They […]

Three Looks

[…]as you navigate from one complex context to another is to read or review classics like Spiritual Leadership by J. Oswald Sanders, The Effective Executive by Peter F. Drucker and The Leadership Challenge by Kouzes & Posner. Look Around If possible, interview the incumbent leader. Get as much information as possible, using questions like these: What have you enjoyed about this role? What (or who) has been particularly challenging? Who are the key “go to” people for information or to simply “git’er done” ? Who will expect what from me, and how often? Who are the influencers? What external factors […]

The Wounded Healer

[…]capacity to use pain in a redeeming fashion. Isaiah’s prophesy about the greatest Suffering Servant declares, “By His wounds we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5). Jesus’ wounds and suffering are the venue through which we have been redeemed. Believers can rejoice because through our own lives, God uses the mystery of pain and suffering through which His eternal work shines brightly. After David came face-to-face with his scarred, miserable nature and repented, he penned marvelous words of God’s mercy that have guided sinners for centuries, “Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion […]

Time, Talent, Treasure: Academies

[…]advise, assist, and teach them as they lead their peers. At USNA, said Bryan, “the midshipmen leadership team is formed around battalion teams that work together to pray for and seek opportunities to serve their fellow midshipmen within Bancroft Hall.” And the impact is formidable, for as Tom observes of the USMA cadet leaders, “The first classers greatly influence their peers as servant leaders, and help others come to Christ or grow in their faith.” Each person comprising the ministry teams, “brings a different personality and faith story to the table.  As the officers share their experiences in the Army […]

He also organizes an annual Rocky Mountain ROTC Retreat at Spring Canyon, OCF’s Retreat and Conference Center just west of Buena Vista, CO.

TTP – Character

[…]but without character, a leader’s motives will always be questioned. J.C. Maxwell, in his book Leadership 101 states, “Character makes trust possible. And trust makes leadership possible” (p. 47). Similarly, J. Collins in his best-selling book Good to Great, points out one unexpected finding regarding leadership, “Whether someone is the ‘right person’ has more to do with character traits and innate capabilities than with specific knowledge, background, or skills” (p. 64). All leaders have strengths and weaknesses. However, a leader can overcome these weaknesses if he or she possesses strong character. The reverse is not usually true. Integrity is the […]

Implicit Trust

[…]Despite all God had done for them, they murmured and complained against the Almighty God and His servant, Moses. “The people spoke against them,” says the Word. How lenient the tone! By actual count this was the twelfth time they had murmured against the Lord. How the patience of Jehovah God must have been tried! “Why had they been brought out of Egyptian bondage?” they wanted to know. They complained that they had no bread and no water and they detested the manna that rained daily from heaven. Finally the limit of God’s patience was reached and god sent poisonous […]
