The real spiritual leader is focused on the service he and she can render to God and other people, not on the residuals and perks of high office or holy title. We must aim to put more into life than we take out. - J. Oswald Sanders
If the world is to hear the church's voice today, leaders are needed who are authoritative, spiritual, and sacrificial. Sacrificial, because this trait follows the model of Jesus, who gave Himself for the whole world and who calls us to follow in His steps. - J. Oswald Sanders
Sacrifice is the ecstasy of giving the best we have to the One we love most. - J. Oswald Sanders
True greatness, true leadership, is achieved not by reducing men to one's service but in giving oneself in selfless service to them. - J. Oswald Sanders
