The second round of the Republican presidential debates is behind us, and by nearly all accounts, America is not impressed. Why?
Because the people on the stage just don’t inspire us. Even though we want to give these candidates the benefit of the doubt, we intuitively recognize their shallowness.
“Trust in the government,” Pew says, “remains at or near historically low levels across generational lines.”An overwhelming majority of people believe that politicians will do and say anything to get elected. What they tell us means nothing. We assume there is zero commitment to keeping their word. And we are often proved right.
The people of Israel had an important decision to make. Who would their next leader be, and what direction would they follow? But there was more. Joshua knew that real leadership is more than talk. He had to walk the walk, set an example. He understood that leaders are obligated to be men of integrity. There was no compromise in his words or his life.
This is the kind of leadership America needs. We stand at a juncture no less critical than that of the Israelites of old. Our country is begging for someone to lead us, someone with conviction, someone who will not compromise. If just one of the GOP candidates would dare to be a Joshua, they’d find a nation rushing to follow them.
