<p>Title: True Authority</p> <p>Kelly Cutbirth reflects on how Jesus modeled another way of authority and how we’re invited to embody this truer way of authority as we lead and follow others [Mark 1:21-28].</p> <p> </p> <p>Reflection</p> <ul><li style="font-weight:400;">What ideas about authority am I being invited to let go of?</li> <li style="font-weight:400;">How can I use my authority to care for and restore freedom to others?</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p>Practice</p> <ul><li style="font-weight:400;">Authority grounded in love. Practice caring by writing a note to a leader whose authority has inspired you. Or, as a leader, write a note to someone who follows your authority letting them know you care about them.</li> <li style="font-weight:400;">Authority restoring freedom. Next time you’re overwhelmed by an emotion, try taking three long belly breaths.
