Howdy everyone! Pastor Z here!

I'm thrilled to share the launch of a new blog segment that truly excites me - "A Word From George." This blog series will delve into the life of President George Washington, with a focus on leadership.

George Washington wasn't just the stoic face on the $1 bill or the president with wooden teeth (fun fact: that story about his teeth is untrue!).

He embodied true leadership, steering a diverse group of colonists to victory against the formidable British Empire.

What captivates me about Washington is his ability to lead amidst overwhelming odds and his candidness about his capabilities. Many of the challenges he faced as a leader mirror the ones you might encounter as a Leader: vision, adversity, change resistance, conflict, team building, communication, delegation, resource management, and the pressures of leadership.

Washington's meticulous documentation offers us a glimpse into both the minutiae of his life and the monumental moments where he led our nation to independence. His legacy is a testament to effective leadership.

Through his experiences, we can draw valuable insights and inspiration to lead with excellence in our own lives.

Stay tuned for the debut installment of "A Word From George" on my blog!

Leadership isn't just about the grand occasions; it's also about navigating everyday challenges in life, and I think Washington was good at just that! --PZ
