Too many leaders, or I should say non-leaders in leadership positions, are like the ones Solomon describes in today’s passage. They fall into the very pit they just dug.

There is nothing wrong with doing a job if we do it unto the Lord and work hard to honor him with our work.
Men, there’s a field manual for training up Godly leaders in your family.
