When we lead, particularly when we lead in ministry, we get to make a difference in this world. Our hope is to see lives changed for the better, to impact the lives of the people around us. Because our vision is filled with good intention, we often aspire to fill the role of hero. But what happens when our good intention and our faithfulness to God's calling leaves us disliked, even targeted? What do we do when the right call disappoints the people that we mean to serve? The truth is that Jesus was not hailed as a hero by the influencers of His time. Good leadership means getting comfortable operating in a new category: Righteous Villain.
