LEADERSHIP WITH A SMALL "L"
President Kim B. Clark said in his devotional address, “The call to be a disciple-leader is a call to minister and to serve. It is a call to lead as Christ leads. It is leadership with a small “L” - the kind of leadership that builds and lifts and inspires through kindness and love and unselfish devotion to the Lord and His work... It is the kind of leadership you will need to build an eternal family.” To read the complete address, click here.
