But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved in the same manner as they.” Then all the multitude kept silent and listened to Barnabas and Paul declaring how many miracles and wonders God had worked through them among the Gentiles. And after they had become silent, James answered, saying, “Men and brethren, listen to me: Simon has declared how God at the first visited the Gentiles to take out of them a people for His name. And with this the words of the prophets agree, just as it is written: ‘After this I will return And will rebuild the tabernacle of David, which has fallen down; I will rebuild its ruins, And I will set it up; So that the rest of mankind may seek the LORD, Even all the Gentiles who are called by My name, Says the LORD who does all these things.’ “Known to God from eternity are all His works. Therefore I judge that we should not trouble those from among the Gentiles who are turning to God, but that we write to them to abstain from things polluted by idols, from sexual immorality, from things strangled, and from blood. For Moses has had throughout many generations those who preach him in every city, being read in the synagogues every Sabbath.”

Jesus called twelve ordinary men to follow Him closely so He could impart Himself to them. Jesus walked them through a process of development and maturing so that when He left, they could repeat this process with others. This practice of making disciples brings us together today. We’re Jesus’ disciples because twelve brave men spent time with Jesus 2,000 years ago and were sent to make disciples themselves.
Christian leadership is radically different from any other leadership. With the church and community desperately needing godly leaders, this plan forms the fifth of seven biblical foundations for Christian leaders. "Faith" takes a biblical look at the issue of leadership vision and concludes that biblical leaders weren't necessarily visionaries, but they were full of faith. It explores how to discern and pursue "faith visions."
