Serving without a title
How do you serve when you have no formal title, only influence?
I have been pioneering sports ministry for many decades and leading from the front since I was 18 years old! Now that I have stepped back from operational leadership, I have found myself wondering "what next?" I no longer have a title or official project, or a position in the organizational structure.
I remember turning up at a conference when a young leader asked my name and what I did in the organization – the organization I started! I felt weird with the irony and struggled to answer. I was going through a transition. All I had was the history and trust, and in the early stages of this transition, I pondered how much I seemed to have lost. But through this season God was teaching me about what I had gained, and my new sense of calling.
My leadership and identity moved from being based on a 'king' to a 'sage'. In the beginning I had been called to a position as a 'king' – the operational leader of the organization for a season, and now I was now called to a position as a 'sage' – an elder and wise counsel. What is common to both roles is ‘influence’.
A powerful question is: How can I use my influence for God’s glory in this current season of life?
Scripture to ponder–1 Corinthians 4:15
Even if you had ten thousand guardians in Christ, you do not have many fathers, for in Christ I became your father through the gospel.
Key Lesson: Our whole life is about growing influence. Becoming a 'sage' later in ministry is a high calling far beyond title or power.

The Christian principle of serving, exemplified by Christ, emphasizes character and heart above all else. Embedded in the ethos of the sports movement, serving others is fundamental. Leaders worldwide selflessly serve, seeking only God's glory and the advancement of His kingdom in the communities they touch, devoid of the need for recognition or appreciation.
