The Multi-Directional Leader

Responding Wisely to Challenges on Every Side

Today’s threats come from every direction.

How can we faithfully respond?  Many church leaders assume the most dangerous threats to God’s people will emerge from one side of the field.  But when they scan for attacks in only one direction, they leave Christians vulnerable to different dangers.

The church needs what Trevin Wax calls multi-directional leadership – leaders who combine dexterity and discipline.  In short, leaders today must demonstrate faithful versatility.  Wax applies multi-directional leadership to the most contentious issues facing churches right now.

Unity and truth can still triumph in a divided age.
