What if you’re so obsessed with what God did in your life that you’re missing what God is doing in your life? Today is the first in a two-part series about being a more present leader. Let’s start by talking about present leaders and why it’s so important to focus on this. 

Growing up I would describe myself as being driven, achievement oriented and ambitious. Those are strengths and also weaknesses (0:46)

“If you always live life for what’s around the corner, you’ll look up one day and realize you never actually lived any life” (3:04)

One of the greatest gifts you can give to people you impact - and to yourself - is your commitment to being a present leader (4:37)

I want to start by talking about present leaders - what they understand, believe and know (6:32)

The present leader understands that attention is an investment (7:32)

The present leader believes that now is a gift (12:30)

The present leader knows that their attitudes and actions will be replicated (16:53)

It’s difficult to be scattered and distracted when you’re around a person who is deeply present and committed (18:17)

To be present is to express gratitude with your attention in such a way that others feel compelled to do the same (20:08)

The first enemy of presence is worry about the future (22:00)

The second enemy of presence is nostalgia for the past (23:27)

The last enemy is distraction in the present (28:39)

What is one place you feel called to be radically present? (31:31)
