TSC_076 Vuyani Sindo, Leadership according to Paul
Vuyani Sindo is Lecturer in Biblical Studies and head of the Biblical Studies department at George Whitefield College in Cape Town, South Africa. Most leadership studies, Sindo argues, focus the leader him/herself). Paul instead makes leadership theocentric, that is, all about God. As more and more church leaders fail—often in public ways—Sindo believes that Christ-followers should identify with Christ and not their leaders.

He has spent much of his career digging up, processing, and writing archaeological reports on Ashkelon. In recent days he and his dig partners from various institutions have turned their trowels to Tel Shimron, a large archaeological site just north of the Jezreel Valley about 8 miles west of Nazareth. Despite Covid-19, the excavation had a full season in 2021. If you want more information about Tel Shimron, check out the website: www.telshimronexcavations.com. Dr. Master is always looking for volunteers. If you’ve ever wanted to try your hand at archaeology, why not spent three or six weeks in Israel next summer? It’s hard work, but it’s worth it!
