God looked at David’s heart when choosing him as king of Israel (1 Sam. 16:7), knowing that he would shepherd them “with integrity of heart” (Ps. 78:72).
God isn’t just concerned about what leaders do but how they do it which should be evidenced in all they do — even staff evaluations.
Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.
The Steering the Church Toward Christ-like Character Leadership Guide pulls fours lessons we can learn from Matthew 7:1-5 for doing staff evaluations with integrity.
