In this series, we’re identifying lessons from Jesus on passing the baton to future leaders. One of those lessons relates to failure.
When you groom leaders for the future, they are going to make mistakes. Those mistakes may undermine your trust in them.
However, failure is the best lesson plan if one is to learn the lesson.
Peter betrayed Jesus. But Jesus knew that Peter was going to make a great leader despite his missteps.
In John 21:16, we read how Jesus reinstated Peter when Jesus said, “Simon son of John, do you love me?” Peter answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.” Jesus said, “Take care of my sheep.”
When someone you lead fails, view it as a growth opportunity for them, not a termination event.
