Author: Jeremy Norton

Welcome to LeadBiblically.com, my name’s Jeremy! It’s my conviction that the Bible holds the most crucial lessons for both life and leadership. I believe biblical instruction holds the map and the compass needed to direct you to God’s plan for your future. This is why embracing a biblical life and leadership is so critical, and why I started this ministry called Lead Biblically, designed around my personal mission: “Serving Christ by cultivating biblical leadership through writing, equipping and communications.“ Within a few clicks, you’ll find a wealth of biblical insight and useful resources. I strive to post at least once each week. Most content stems from a Christian worldview and contains many references and links to scriptural principles. That being said, you’ll also find a fair share of personal life experience, as I strive to become the leader God has called me to be. To ensure that you receive my latest posts, feel free to subscribe. I'm here to help you navigate the life and leadership God has called you to. In His Service, Jeremy Norton
