N.T. Wright addresses Christian character at length.

First, he examines the virtuous purpose of Christian character. The Christian life is one that develops the virtue to act naturally.

Second, he discusses the need for character transformation, a renewal of mind. Character transformation occurs within, creating a change in behavior.

Third, he considers the virtues of faith, hope and love. These virtues connect to the development of the fruit of the Spirit within the context of community.

The premise emphasizes practice and community. We need each other to implement these virtues. We cannot develop as spiritual leaders in isolation.

Lifelong Development

Much has been said about leadership development as a lifelong process. Among the ideas expressed several are worth considering, such as the following:

Leadership is developed over time. God works throughout our lifetime to train us and give us the experience needed to develop our leadership.

Developing a leader can involve periods of suffering. Events occur throughout life that may involve periods of isolation designed to help us reflect and prepare for greater leadership.

Proper perspective is the goal of leadership development. As challenging as periods of suffering can be, they help shape our perspective to see God’s hand in the events of our life.
