Crossroads is a classic song written by Robert Johnson and performed by numerous artists.

Several have tried to explain the meaning of this song. The most revealing involves Johnson’s struggle with loneliness, especially connected to the desperation of finding his way home from an unfamiliar place.

Leadership can certainly be a lonely place. 

Leadership will also take us into unfamiliar places where desperation exists to find our way home.

The result brings us to a crossroads where we question our leadership. We are faced with making challenging decisions.

Spiritually, our life constantly faces crossroads. The decisions we make in those moments determine salvation or condemnation. Our leadership serves to help others at the crossroads of their life to make the right decisions and find their way home.
