Summary

A boy with light blue eyes that just about matched the slightly hazy June sky sat on the float below the town landing at Greenhaven, L. I., and stared thoughtfully across harbor and bay to where, two miles northward, the village of Johnstown stretched along the farther shore. He had a round, healthy, and deeply tanned face of which a short nose, many freckles, the aforementioned blue eyes, and a somewhat square chin were prominent features. There was, of course, a mouth, as well, and that, too, was prominent just now, for it was puckered with the little tune that the boy was softly whistling. Under a sailor’s hat of white canvas the hair was brown, but a brown that only escaped being red by the narrowest of margins. That fact was a sore subject with Toby Tucker.

    The kind of worship leader God seeks. They lead teams not with control, but with love. They foster unity, speak life, and model servant-heartedness. They are the first to pray, the first to repent, the last to seek credit. In their private battles and public roles, they echo the heart of David: shepherds with integrity, leaders with skillful hands. This is the kind of worship leader God desires. And this is the kind of worship leader He is raising up in our generation—not through fame, but through faithfulness
