The Fruit of His Life

Pastor Max Yeary spent the day with our cohort.  He began pastoring Christian Life Center the year I was born (1978).  He's been there ever since.

Today he put his life into his lecture and I observed something meaningful.

Max loves his staff members like a father loves a son. 

Almost all of them were saved at CLC and have been discipled through Max's life. He honors each of them with his words (even though none of them are here). And he speaks with pride about former staff members who have gone on to lead great churches.

During one of our breaks I thanked him for giving me such a vivid picture of servant leadership. When I did tears filled his eyes.

There's something compelling about a leader who wears his heart on his sleeve.
