Week 8 - How to Encourage Leaders

Church leaders carry a sacred and often heavy responsibility as they watch over the souls of God’s people. Hebrews 13 and 1 Thessalonians 5 remind us that these men and women labor not for recognition, but out of love for the Lord and His church. The strength and joy of leadership depend significantly on the congregation's encouragement and cooperation. When Christians remember their leaders’ example, support them with humility, and esteem them in love, the whole body thrives in unity and peace. This lesson reminds us that encouragement is not flattery; it is faithfulness. As we pray for, honor, and assist our leaders, we not only bless them but also honor Christ, the Chief Shepherd of the church.
