History’s Top 10 Liberating Leaders

A liberator is one that sets people free from bondage or oppression. They are typically great followers more than self-proclaimed leaders. These liberating leaders have affected and will affect people for centuries.

1. Jesus Christ - While Jesus is a non-traditional leader in a Western worldview, he is the best liberator in the history of mankind. His life continues to liberate the souls of men and women. No one has, nor ever will impact the world as much as Jesus.

2. Moses - This historic leader led people who didn’t want to be led into the nation of Israel. He liberated the people from Egypt with great humility and wisdom. He shows how great following leads to great leading.

3. George Washington - This American general and president represents the will and character of American leadership. He liberated the colonists from the tyranny of England and established the new nation.

4. Abraham Lincoln - One president maintained unity in the midst of civil war and led the liberation of the slaves to become Americans.

5. Ghandi - This Indian leader related to his people and led with ultimate humility and a complete lack of greed.

6. Martin Luther King - This man’s influence continues to impact people around the world. His influence continues to inspire Americans, most recently in the U.S. election of President Obama.

7. Winston Churchill - This amazing British prime minister held England and the Allied forces together against the evil Nazi empire, which ultimately led to the liberation of Europe with the help of the U.S. forces and other leaders such as General Eisenhower and General Bradley.

8. FDR - Franklin Roosevelt faced some of the harshest circumstances in U.S. history - the depression and WWII. His leadership liberated America to become a world leader and pull the people out of the malaise.

9. Ronald Reagan - His presidency is best known for his leadership and liberation of totalitarianism in our world. His leadership best describes the desire of American’s to truly liberate companies from bad leaders for the prosperity of the people and the world.

10. King David - A giant named Goliath held a people hostage until a little boy with five stones and a heart and mind of faith entered the battle field. From that moment on he liberated his people and led them effectively. He is a great leader for all times.
