"But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness... to open their eyes and to turn them from darkness to light. Acts 26:16,18 It is important for leaders to learn to speak out in a way that is persuasive without being heavy-handed or offensive. The problem with most of us is that we are afraid to stand up for what we believe, to be witnesses for what is true and right. We want to do the right thing, but we are troubled by fears. So we sit back, and the world drifts about us, and society increasingly adopts attitudes and standards of behavior of which most of us do not approve."
