Balaam's Donkey & Christian Leadership

From Josh Moody's excellent The God-Centred Life: Insights from Jonathan Edwards for Today (IVP):

"Given that Balaam's donkey was used to convey God's message, we might go so far as to say that, biblically speaking, it is quite clear that intelligence is not necessary for usefulness in the Lord's service." (p. 113)

[The thought is Moody's, not Edwards' - just to be clear!]
