Prioritizing Character Development over Competency in Leadership

In leadership, prioritizing character development is crucial over competency. Young leaders in the mega church world often face pressures such as vying for attention, book deals, conferences, side hustles, speaking engagements, and leading a church. These pressures can lead young leaders to feel overwhelmed, causing them to consider shortcuts in developing their character. The temptation to take shortcuts arises when the demands of the leadership world exceed the capacity of one's character, making it essential to prioritize character growth over competency.
