  “The AAA-Rated Leader” Anointed. Aligned. Available. Big Idea: God doesn’t just anoint you for the platform, He anoints you for life. But the anointing flows through alignment and requires availability . True influence comes when these three meet in every sphere of life. 1. FAMILY – Lead With Oil, Not Just Order Anointed: Your home is your first pulpit. Scripture: “You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.” – Psalm 23:5 If your cup overflows anywhere, it should be at home first. You can’t fake anointing in front of your kids or spouse—it leaks or it overflows. Aligned: God’s order in the home brings peace. Scripture: “But if someone does not know how to manage his own household, how will he care for God's church?” – 1 Timothy 3:5 Align your calendar with your values. Don’t win on the platform and lose at home. Available: Quote – “The single greatest influence on a child’s faith is the spiritual leadership of the parents.” Be present, not just providing.

1. The "Know-It-All" Leader "If you can’t be coached, you can’t be trusted." → Dismisses feedback, acts infallible, and refuses to learn.   2.

1. Matthew 6:14–15 (NIV) “For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.” Straight up: Jesus connects our forgiveness from God directly to how we forgive others. 2. Matthew 18:32–35 (NIV) “You wicked servant,” he said, “I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?” In anger his master handed him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed. This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother or sister from your heart.” Hard truth: Grace is not something we just receive—it’s something we’re commanded to extend. 3.
