| | One of the worst things that can happen to your ministry is to end it in the shame of moral failure. The problem is that it is easy to fall into the trap of moral compromise and failure. The checklist below is a great tool that I found to check yourself to see if you are slipping toward moral failure: (It is written from a man's perspective, but easily translates for women)
- Do I feel a sense of entitlement? - "I
deserve this because of who I am or what I do."
- Am I a gifted entrepreneur, but my life is out
of balance?
- Do I have the ability to compartmentalize my
moral choices? Can I do something wrong and then mentally put it aside
while I do something right?
- Do I expect my employees and peers to keep quiet
when I do questionable things?
- Am I a "high risk" man who loves the
adrenaline rush of danger or compromise?
- Am I a magnet for women? Do they love my power,
money, influence, and personality?
- Is my integrity in check?
- Am I surrounded with "yes men" with
very little accountability?
- Do I compromise my conscience?
- Who is my mentor? Who am I a mentor to?
- Do I play by my own rules? Do I have an ethical
code?
- Do I handle stress in a healthy way?
- What do I do with my money? Integrity includes
both my physical and my financial self.
- Are my moods under control?
- Have I found a balance with money, sex, and
power?
Let's work together as leaders here at LCC to keep ourselves above reproach.
