Passage: Hebrews Heb. 4:14-16
Summary
A limp does not necessarily mean a leader is disqualified. Sometimes the limp is evidence that the leader has wrestled with God and learned that divine strength is greater than human ability. Sometimes the limp becomes the very thing that keeps a leader humble, dependent, compassionate, and close to Jesus. The most dangerous leader may not be the one who walks with a limp, but the one who believes he no longer needs grace.
