Listen to part 1 here.  In this portion, Clint talks about common qualities of Biblical leaders, the cost of leadership, prayer habits, and practical advice. He closes the episode with reminders that the Lord works in and through imperfect leaders, and an openness to answer His calls to lead may bring great cost but may also bring great reward.  If you would like to share your own story, complete the form on OCF’s “Be a Guest” webpage. Alternatively, if you have an idea for a guest or topic we should consider for a future episode of the show, send an email to podcast@ocfusa.org.     POINTS TO PONDER  As you listen to this conversation with Clint, here are a few questions to ponder in your personal time, with a small group, or with a mentor:  What leaders in the Bible do you admire and why?  How does the way God used broken leaders in Scripture encourage you to lead for His glory despite your own brokenness?  Which of the five principles Clint mentions do you struggle with most?  In the midst of your leadership role(s), how would you describe your prayer life?  How is the cost of leadership actually a cost for everyone?  Have you felt isolated as a leader? How did you work through that?
