Jesus is the Ultimate in Micro Managing?

Jesus is the Ultimate in Micro Managing?

This comes from the latest bit in Doug Wilson of Blog and Mablog’s review of Aimee Byrd’s book β€œWhy Can’t We Be Friends?”. Doug says a number of rather squishy things in this chapter, everything from that the honor/shame society that women live in is good to disputing yet again that men and women can be friends without sex. Then he makes this claim about Jesus. No, Mr. Wilson, Jesus is not the ultimate in micro managing. Wilson might be though.

Here’s where he claims Jesus loves micro managing:

Nope. Most of the time micro managing people suck so badly to be around. Their view that everyone else is an incompetent boob is off putting before they even start issuing orders. It always seems like it’s the most insecure immature people who lead by micro managing. Anyone with half a brain tries to avoid them.

This explains a lot about Doug Wilson’s people handling style and is all too common in the realms of Quiverfull Evangelicals.

The rest of this word salad is Doug trying to claim that servant leadership does not exist, that it should be servant lordship and we silly women would not choke on calling our husbands lords if men were servant lords.
