A champion, upholder, backer, supporter: Everyone needs an advocate.

Jesus is our Advocate. As an advocate, He comes alongside and stands in our place.

Consider our position as leaders.

When people struggle in their faith, deal with the challenges of life, or step out to accept responsibility, will we be an advocate for them?

During a time of temptation, personal trial, or spiritual growth, leaders must be an advocate.

The necessity is vital to the development of the Lord’s church. Christians need to know the Advocate we have in Jesus and they need to know the advocate they have in our leadership.
