Module 2: Self – Emptying Love
Self-Emptying speaks to our capacity as humans to empty ourselves of all that stands in the way of loving God, ourselves and the “dear neighbor” (including our home, Planet Earth) so we might be filled with God’s inclusive, all-embracing love, just as we were created and loved by God. This module helps us to see that self-emptying calls us, as leaders, to servant leadership, collaboration, and shared leadership. What stands in the way of fulfilling this role for you?
Approximate times for each section of the module:
