Leading and Following as an Ordinary Radical

“If someone shares in a prayer meeting that they need a wheelchair ramp, well don’t just pray for it. Do pray for it, but also get some carpenters together. … A good leader will be the first to pray and the first to bring everyone together to help be the answer to that prayer. We cannot always be the answer to every prayer, but good leaders bring folks together and do life.” —John M. Perkins, from the book
