In this week’s episode from Nehemiah 5, Pastor Daniel talks about the do’s and don’ts of rebuking people as a leader. Nehemiah does it the right way. The wrong approach to this biblical practice can lead to disaster. You don’t’ want to miss this essential lesson.

In Pastor’s Perspective, Pastor Joe Williams talks about his own experience with lovingly rebuking people. It is not easy, but if you try and avoid it, it only makes matters worse.

“Little boldness is needed to assail the opinions and practices of notoriously wicked men; but to rebuke great and good men for their conduct, and to impeach their discernment, is the highest effort of moral courage.” - William Lloyd Garrison

“If it is hard to accept a rebuke, even a private one, it is harder still to administer one in loving humility.” - D. A. Carson

Better is open rebuke than hidden love. Faithful are the wounds of a friend; profuse are the kisses of an enemy.- Proverbs 27:5-6

Whoever rebukes a man will afterward find more favor than he who flatters with his tongue.- Proverbs 28:23

“The fear of the Lord means to seek to glorify God in everything you do.”  - Warren Wiersbe

“The authority by which the Christian leader leads is not power but love, not force but example, not coercion but reasoned persuasion. Leaders have power, but power is safe only in the hands of those who humble themselves to serve.” – John Stott
