The
Loving Leader Profile
For some, the words loving and leader
are anomalies; some people cannot conceive of the two concepts working in tandem. Their
idea of leadership is the authoritarian dictator who rules with an iron fist, and then
concept of love is mushy and weak. But in the Bible, the husband fits neither of these
stereotypes. On the one hand, he is in touch with his feelings an is able to express both
pain and joy, sympathy and encouragement. He is able to relate to his wife on an emotional
level.
On the other hand, he is strong and dependable, feeling a
sense of responsibility for the well being of his wife and family. He does not run when
things get tough but looks for solutions that will benefit the whole family. He is a
leader to be sure, but he does not lead in isolation. He values the partnership with his
wife; he wants to be there for her, but he has no desire to dominate her. This is the
husband as loving leader.
