In part one of the series "How Not to Lead", King Saul is used as an example of poor leadership. The focus is on how Saul avoided responsibility, which led to his downfall as a leader. In contrast, the message emphasizes the importance of taking responsibility, as Jesus did, showing how true leadership involves humility, accountability, and serving others. By following Jesus' example, we learn to embrace our responsibilities rather than shirking them, which leads to stronger, more effective leadership.
