I don't know where that comes from. I'm not sure we can totally blame that on a lack of good leadership in all cases.

I don't believe it's necessarily a lack of good leadership, as it is perhaps a lack of a good example. Let me explain, because I know that sounds harsh.
The thing is, unless people are hungry, they won't go looking for food. Unless people are thirsty for living water, they won't go looking for something to drink. Instead, they are lulled to sleep and end up becoming fat and lazy. Our job, as salt, is to make people thirsty! If people had more examples of people on fire for God, making a difference, walking in the freedom wherein Christ has made them free and in the power and demonstration of the Holy Ghost, they would be more likely to grow hungry or thirsty for that same life. The won't find it if they are not seeking. Our mistake comes when we try to force our own substitute on them.
