Of the many images and pictures you may have in your mind of what a culture-shaping leader looks like, a gardener is probably nowhere near the top of your list. You may be thinking of a captain, or a quarterback, or a politician… but John 20:15 paints a picture for us of Jesus, the ultimate leader, being mistaken for a gardener on the most triumphant and important day in all history: the day he was raised from the dead. What was it that left these women “thinking he was the gardener…?” Perhaps it was his attire, his voice, or how he carried himself. Whatever it was, this image of victorious JESUS being mistaken for a common gardener has some serious implications for how we Christians (and worship leaders) are supposed to carry ourselves and lead others. The Gardener Philosophy is a focused and practical guide for any current day worship leader that will help to build a healthier self, team, and congregation.
