This coming Tuesday, Barack Obama will be inaugurated as the 44th President of the United States, and before that historic occasion my congregation and I will complete our first message series of the new year: Letters to the Next President. I remain indebted to Andy Stanley of Northpoint Church for the concept, and I hope that my treatment of these themes has allowed my church to reflect meaningfully on spiritual issues that confront our next leader…and that confront us.
This last message of three calls us to remember that leadership (and–more accurately–all of life) is a stewardship for which we will be held accountable. Mr. President, Who Will Call You to Account?
