Abstract
Saul's leadership can be a reflection of the leadership of today's church pastors. This article aims to describe the failure of Saul in leading the nation of Israel and the reflection that can be built from it. Through the analysis of Saul's leadership, a constructive reflection was formed so that a leadership model was formed for pastors or church leaders. The study method is a descriptive qualitative one with a literature study approach having being adopted. The results of this study conclude that to be pleasing to God, a leader or shepherd is required to be persistent or consistent from the beginning of receiving a call to the end of life (persistent leadership). The picture of this leadership model is firm, firm in faith and a life that is not tied to worldly materialistic matters. There are three things that become the focus of persistent leadership, namely: one, being persistent in managing the vision, that is, all things in life are aimed at the establishment of the kingdom of God. Two, persistent divine interaction, firmness in communicating with God through prayer and Bible study. This is indicated by a wise life. Three, persist in carrying out the mission. True mission is self-denial, not living according to worldly values and living only for God.
