Every leader – male or female – faces challenges. But I do believe women in leadership roles have very different needs. So…
1 Kings – probably not the first book you would choose to go study. Many of the Old Testament books of history have a bad rep – they are too long, too hard, and too boring. NOT TRUE! Even so, I know that Leviticus, Numbers, and the likes have been the grave yards of “read the…
