Holistic Christian Leadership: The Combination of Orthodoxy, Orthopraxis and Orthopathy

Abstract

Leadership is a dynamic topic and does not stop at just one model and research study. This factor causes another research continue to develop from time to time from different perspectives. This research examines the holistic approach of three elements, namely orthodoxy, orthopraxis and orthopathy. Although, there have been many studies that have examined the topic of orthodoxy or orthopathy, there have not been many studies that have paid attention to the combination of the three, so as to create a relationship that can strengthen the weaknesses of each of these leadership principles. Through this article shows that by placing importance on a firm grasp of doctrine, a dedication to manifesting one's faith, and a profound sense of compassion and empathy, Christian leaders can establish an environment characterized by trust and reverence within their congregations. Therefore, this paper suggests that Christian leaders should adopt these concepts as part of their leadership style, thereby cultivating a more comprehensive and successful approach to guiding and serving others as desired by God.
