In this Christmas Eve episode of Coffee with the Superintendent, Dr. Jack Farmer reflects on the journey of spiritual maturity and personal responsibility through the lens of Scripture and leadership principles.
In The Holy Spirit’s Water, we examine Genesis 30:2, exploring Jacob’s response to Rachel’s struggles and how it reveals his spiritual immaturity. We trace the development of the patriarchs—Abram, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph—and highlight how God uses trials, failures, and divine encounters to refine leaders. We also connect their growth to New Covenant truths about sanctification, transformation through the Holy Spirit, and Christ’s ultimate example of maturity.
In The Add-Ins, we dive into Leadership Principle #9—Accept Responsibility for Group Shortcomings. We discuss the importance of owning mistakes, bearing one another’s burdens, and leading with humility. Whether in school, at home, or in the workplace, we explore practical strategies rooted in Scripture to build accountability and trust, reflecting Christ’s servant leadership.
Join us as we celebrate the birth of Christ and reflect on His role as both Savior and the ultimate example of leadership. This episode will challenge and encourage you to grow in faith, responsibility, and maturity as we head into the New Year.
