"The story of the Mormon pioneers is one of the most compelling in our nation's history," said Bennett. "The National Pioneer Heritage Area will serve as an appropriate appro-priate recognition of their remarkable re-markable achievements over 150 years ago, and also provide pro-vide a great cultural opportunity opportu-nity for travelers along Utah's Highway 89 today."

Rogers Moses is described in Scripture as the most humble or meekest man upon the face of the earth (Num. 12:3). This fact has always fascinated fasci-nated me. How is it possible that this meek man is also remembered re-membered as one of the greatest leaders in history? How did he accomplish so many great things for God with such a humble spirit?

Bennett noted the alliance is made up of a broad and diverse di-verse group of citizens including in-cluding representatives from county government, economic eco-nomic development organizations, organi-zations, artisans, and heritage her-itage groups. Under the Bennett legislation, legisla-tion, the alliance will develop a management plan for the heritage area which must be approved by the secretary of the interior. Private property proper-ty and land use planning will not be affected try this designation. desig-nation. While the bill authorizes autho-rizes $10 million for the heritage her-itage area, the federal share of any costs carried out pursuant pur-suant to this act will not exceed ex-ceed 50 percent. Kane, Garfield, Piute, Sevier, Sevi-er, Wayne and Sanpete counties and their respective communities are included in the heritage area. The bill now goes to the House of Representatives for consideration. Most powerful is he who has himself in his power. meekness or gentleness as it is variously translated in different dif-ferent versions of Scripture is something all Christian people are commanded to develop de-velop (1 Tim. 6:11). Scripture even tells us "the meek will inherit the land" (Ps. 37:11). But meekness and leadership don't seem to fit together, that is, until you understand more about both meekness and leadership. Meekness does not mean weakness. It does not mean ineffectiveness, indecisive-ness, indecisive-ness, f earfulness or lack of confidence. Meekness means a quiet sense of one's own limits and one's dependency upon God and others. Leadership, on the other, hand, is not about self-aggrandizement and personal power, at least good leadership leader-ship is not about these things. The best form of leadership maximizes the contributions of others. It seeks to bring out the best in followers, colleagues col-leagues and even other leaders. lead-ers. Moses was a meek man and a great leader because he did the will of God, he worked on behalf of his people, peo-ple, and he acknowledged that all of his talent and accomplishments ac-complishments were sourced in God in Heaven. Too many corporate CEOs have forgotten about meekness. meek-ness. Too many politicians have developed an air of detachment de-tachment more akin to narcissistic nar-cissistic celebrities than elected elect-ed servants of the people. Too many religious leaders have checked their meekness meek-ness at the door of the church, dominating their parishioners like feudal lords. Meek, leadership is not as contradictory as it sounds. Meekness is a matter of character and good leadership leader-ship puts it in practice. Rex M.
