    Contributed by Brad Beaman on May 12, 2022
     | 5,738 views

    Jethro gave Moses such helpful advice that not only did Moses apply this, he wrote it in Scripture. He must have been aware that this was a leadership principle that would help spiritual leaders in every generation that follows him. There would come different circumstances but timeless principles.

Not for me, I saw that my son-in-law was working long hours and here in this book were principles for the entrepreneur that could help him rise up new employees that he ...read more
