In Vance K. Jackson's new leadership book, "Legacy: God Honors the Heart," this excerpt from Chapter 1 explores the powerful biblical account of Naaman and Gehazi—a moment that unpacks the tension between opportunity and integrity. While Naaman’s healing showcases God’s miraculous power, Gehazi’s actions reveal a deeper issue: the danger of "character compromise". Vance draws a bold and relevant parallel to leadership across the spheres of business, government, and community. This chapter challenges readers to reflect on how internal decisions—those made behind closed doors or beyond public view—can either elevate a legacy or unravel it.
