Leader

STUART BRISCOE WRITES about a funeral for a war veteran in which the man's military buddies had a role in the service...

The friends requested that the minister lead them to the casket for a moment of silence. They would then follow him out a side door. The plan was carried out with military precision -- until the minister marched them into a broom closet. The soldiers had to make an awkward retreat.

THOUGHTS: That preacher made an honest mistake, but it illustrates that leaders must know where they are going. As go the leaders, so go the followers (Haddon Robinson).

KneEmail: "Let them alone. They are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind leads the blind, both will fall into a ditch” (Matt. 15:14).
