TL @186,
“I’d like to see what you would say, so I’ll answer that serving sacrificially is broader in scope. Leading sacrificially is just one way of serving sacrificially.”

Actually, that works for me. Anyone can lead in certain circumstances and everyone should be serving in pretty much all they do, but not everyone is called to lead in broader scopes. Broader scopes of leading would be in ministry, which anyone can be called to but not everyone is called or equipped to do so. Leading in non ministry is a matter of being equipped in some way with knowledge, skills, or experience. In Christian ministry there is also knowledge, skills, experience but in addition there is a spiritual equipping by God linked to a personal calling.
What say you to that Craig? 🙂

Not sure if you have understood what I meant, or that I understand what you mean. I would like to see what others say about this before I comment more. Note I said “serving is broader in scope”, not “leading in broader scopes”. What do you mean by “ministry”?
