Peter could speak credibly about persecutions because he endured them himself. He practiced what he preached (1Pet 4:12-14).
In Acts 5 we can see how he suffered for his faith. Acts 12 reports his imprisonment. Eventually, the Romans crucified him upside down instead of right-side up.
Are you a leader who is “tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind” (Eph 4:14 )?
How can you remain steadfast?
One thing that can make or break a leader is communication skills. An excellent place to learn about effective communication is in the Scriptures. You’ll see frequent use of similes and metaphors to explain things in terms that are understandable to the listeners.
