Quote from James Whitley's book: Duty, Honor, and Glory:
"Experts began studying leadership in the early 1900s, but, as Leonidas showed us twenty-five hundred years ago, it
REALLY ISN'T ALL THAT COMPLICATED.
GRAB A SWORD; STRAP ON A SHIELD, AND LEAD." (emphasis mine)
May your
sword be God's Word and your
shield be your faith in Christ Jesus, the Warrior of all Warriors!
"...
take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one...take the...
sword of the Spirit, which is the
word of God." (Ephesians 6:16,17; NIV)
