Headship Vs Leadership

Differences between Headship and Leadership.

Headship responsibility falls solely on the man.
Headship provides the covering for the wife's leadership skills.
Headship requires the man to understand that he himself is under the headship of Christ.
Headship in marriage should replicate the headship of Christ.
The head understands that the buck stops with him.
The head oversees the entire home and marriage.
The head is the final arbiter in deciding direction for the family.
The head is the final point of authority in the home.

Leadership is a natural gift to influence people.
Leadership is closely connected to abilities and personality.
Leadership can be a combination of skills from the husband and the wife.
Leadership can be predominant in one of the spouses.
Leadership must be recognized and released by the head of the home (the man) to be effective.
Leadership responsibilities can be recognized and released in children when they reach maturity.
