<p>Jesus modeled a different kind of leadership. His leadership brought life to His followers, and our leadership should too. But how can our leadership be life-giving when it can so easily be life-taking? Susan and Karen challenge us to:  Think biblically and lead covenantally  Find our confidence in Christ, not ourselves  Set our purpose on eternal goals instead of specific tasks  Reflect Jesus, not agendas  Lead with prayer &amp; wisdom  Seek covenantal community  Submit to God and the complementarian leadership of the church Life-giving leadership is grounded in God's Word, filled with the purpose of glorifying God, relationally driven and decidedly different than anything the world teaches us about leadership. Practical, inspiring and filled with stories of women, like you, who want to know how to lead in a way that reflects Christ. Karen serves as the Coordinator for PCA Women's Ministry, where she seeks to connect women and churches to one another and to sound resources. Susan is the former PCA Coordinator for Women's Ministry and served as a consultant to CDM. Susan is the author and co-author of several books for women's ministries and children.</p>

<p>Author: Karen Hodge - PCA “To be a Christian without prayer is no more possible than to be alive without breathing.” — Martin Luther Breathing is very complex but is primarily a subconscious activity. Yet there is a danger in familiarity. As Christians, we may become casual in our relationship with God, taking His presence for granted. Prayer is a lifeline for believers which God designed to build our relationship with Him and others. He created it to be an ongoing conversation starting with Him speaking to us through His Word and then our responding in prayer. Spiritual vitality begins with inhaling truth and exhaling prayers. The grand purpose of this six-week Bible study is to consider in the context of community what it might look like if the words of the Lord’s Prayer were written over every aspect of our lives, homes, work, church, and community—to spend time together unpacking how our position in Christ impacts our posture in prayer. We invite you to take a deep breath . . . and breathe!
