program committed to assisting Cedarville University students in

not only understanding but establishing and developing a biblical

foundation for service-based leadership. CU LEAD is designed to

enhance the leadership ability of students by providing them with

a lens to view leadership and leadership opportunities. The core

of the CU LEAD program is the foundation of leadership, which is

defined by the following:

• Stewardship – We recognize that all of our gifts, abilities, and

talents are given to us from God, and we are responsible to

use them for His glory in the service of others. (1 Pet. 4:10)

• Influence – We recognize that true leadership is influence. We

all have influence and it is our privilege and responsibility to

influence others. We must lead like Jesus who did not have

a position in society but radically changed the world for the

Kingdom of God through his influence.

• Service – We recognize that true leadership is not a position

of honor or power but one of humility and service. (Heb. 13)
