We see here that it is not enough to just lead by example. Eli wasn't a bad priest, his sons were. And his decision to let them do whatever they wanted, he lost the legacy of leadership.

As leaders, we need to do more than just be good examples. We need to deal with the things that are stopping other innocent people from connecting with the Lord.

Oh and one last thing. Its not enough for evangelsim to just be an example either. We have to take the next step and open our mouths to talk to them about Christ.

Being a good example is important... It is just not quite enough.
