Martin Luther's vision for a future church in which the Bible was the standard for truth was blocked time and time again by bureaucracies within the church. Martin's vision has allowed him to guide people through every difficulty along the way. Luther's use of influence changed the way I view how I lead and influence others. How many times in the past have I faced obstacles and quickly given up. I need to convey a vision for the future that inspires my members to see the need for change.

While I most likely won't have to risk my life, I must demonstrate ethical leadership by standing up for what is right.
