I have learned probably as much from the terrible ones of how I don't want to lead and how I never want to lead with a culture of fear.” – Henry Costa<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> RECOMMENDED RESOURCES<br> <br> <br> <br> <a href="https://glorify-app.com/">Glorify | #1 Christian Daily Worship App</a><br> <br> <br> <br> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Organizational-Culture-Leadership-Edgar-Schein/dp/0470190604">Organizational Culture and Leadership by Edgar H.
