Download or read book Spiritual Leadership written by Bill Vincent and published by RWG Publishing. This book was released on 2023-03-31 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What makes one a great leader? Is it being charismatic, confident and having high emotional intelligence? Is it being able to reach out to people you lead, as well as transform their lives? Is it being able to delegate functions effectively? While all the above are some aspects that make someone a great leader, when it comes to spiritual leadership, being a leader is much more than just being charismatic and being able to influence and transform. Furthermore, with the world becoming wicked, as leaders, we may feel that we need to change the standards of God to conform to what is around us. The truth is that the word of God never changes and as Christians, if we want to live a holy life that is pleasing to God, we need to remain true to his word. Furthermore, as a leader in the church, you don't take your examples from worldly leaders but rather from the great example of Jesus Christ. How then do you lead, as Christ led? This book, "Spiritual Leadership" will teach you how to be a great leader and above all an amazing Christian by following some basic foundational principles. Here is what you will learn: Why you need to arm yourself with the word of God and be ready to suffer and be obedient even in the suffering The importance of humility as a Christian leader How to embrace humility How, as a Christian, you are to provide solutions to the people in need around you An understanding of how church leaders are at greater risk To understand that the devil will try to destroy a ministry from inside and what you need to do to deal with this The need to focus on building the community and not just the Church How and why having a vision is important in leadership How we need to seek the father in spirit and in truth The importance of co-operation and collaboration with the Holy spirit and those in leadership Some hindrances that may prevent us from moving in the fullness of a prophetic ministry How to remove torment from ministry And so much more The book breaks down the seemingly complex topic using beginner friendly language to help you to start applying what you learn right away!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus said, “Go and make disciples.” So, what exactly are we doing? Western churches face a difficult future marked by numerical decline and evident signs of shrinking cultural influence. But Discipleship in Community wisely asks the church to go back to basics. What does it mean to follow Jesus? What does a life of discipleship look like? Trusted scholars Mark Powell, John Mark Hicks, and Greg McKinzie invite you to consider how good theology can lead to better, more intentional discipleship. In Discipleship in Community you will learn • how the language of Trinity matters to everyday disciples; • how God’s plan and mission is unfolding and how, as disciples, we can participate in that mission; • how the Bible is more than a book of facts and how it guides us into a relationship with God; • how baptism and the Lord’s Supper allow us to experience God’s saving power; and • how local churches can encourage intentional discipleship.
Download or read book Spiritual Leadership written by Thomas H. Ulrich and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-24 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spiritual leadership focuses on what you can experience and how you can work on your 'self.' Taking a non-religious stance, this book introduces readers to a dynamic layer model of the self, with inner centricity at its core. Leaders will learn how to work at different levels of their personality in order to achieve this inner centricity – the inner-core balance, the foundation of effective leadership in the VUCA world, and the foundation of personal authenticity and natural authority. Spiritual leadership combines classic leadership theories and models of authentic leadership with philosophical concepts and consciousness and awareness techniques inspired by the contemplative mindfulness movement. Practical exercises and illustrative examples support the application of the concept in professional leadership and private everyday life.

Download or read book Preaching as Spiritual Leadership written by Michael E. Connors, CSC and published by Liturgy Training Publications. This book was released on 2021-05-15 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this unique resource, Fr. Michael E. Connors, CSC, gathers and expertly guides the collective wisdom of experienced preachers and homilists to provide a unique resource that examines the preacher’s unique role as shepherd and a spiritual leader. The chapters will investigate these dual roles according to the roots of the Catholic spiritual tradition and provide practical advice for priests, deacons, seminarians in homiletics classes or preaching classes, retreat leaders, RCIA catechists—all who preach. Preaching as Spiritual Leadership provides solutions to the following questions: How is preaching embedded in the Church’s pastoral mission? What does it mean to be a shepherd and spiritual leader for others? How can a preacher flourish in the role of spiritual leader? How can we lead others into committed discipleship through preaching? To be a shepherd and spiritual leader, the preacher must be in some sense a mystic, who is filled with the Lord’s gracious presence, a presence to be shared with others. Homilists are a sacramental people, they must also be a mystagogues: ministers who can both lead the community’s ritual celebrations, and help the People of God to plunge into the liturgy with lively faith, to touch the holy realities behind them.

Download or read book Spiritual Leadership in the Entrepreneurial Business written by Mario Fernando and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2007 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this well informed, insightful and comprehensive study, Mario Fernando critically explores the complex and multiform interplay of management theory and practice, personal biographies, theologies of faith and cultural dynamics in order to elaborate and advance a coherent theory of spiritual leadership. George Gotsis and Zoe Kortezi, Entrepreneurship and Innovation In this example of science and theory meeting emerging reality, Mario Fernando delves into the complex dimensions of the interplay of the science of management, theologies of faith, and the dynamics of culture to first understand and then construct and advance a theory of spiritual leadership. With real world insights and reflections from himself and others, he addresses theory to practice implications and cautions against creating just another fad. This insightful and thought-provoking book provides a timely read and focus for reflection for organizational leaders concerned with success in the new age economy and global society, and who seek a path to understand their own personal and pragmatic spiritual leadership grounding. Gary D. Geroy, Colorado State University, US The book will be an important contribution to the literature and will certainly open up some new avenues of research and inquiry. Ralph L. Piedmont, Loyola College in Maryland, US Although interest in workplace spirituality continues to soar, the literature and empirical research on non-Western, non-Christian spirituality in entrepreneurship and leadership is almost non-existent. Mario Fernando s unique study fills the gap in the literature, exploring cross-cultural and religious distinctions of the contemporary meaning and enactment of spirituality in organizations. Case studies of thirteen influential, spiritually motivated Buddhist, Hindu, Christian and Muslim entrepreneurs are used to explore the significant impact of religion upon the management and leadership of an organization. The book concludes that although each entrepreneur s outward practice of spiritual leadership conformed to personal religious beliefs, these practices had two common aims: a connection with self, others and/or an ultimate reality, and a need to direct and motivate self and/or others to develop an organizational culture founded on a sense of shared community. This unique and fascinating work will strongly appeal to entrepreneurship, leadership and business and management researchers and scholars with a particular interest in the interplay between entrepreneurship and spiritual leadership.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important reference work on a practice that is needed more than ever in a VUCA world, this book helps readers understand the importance of responsible and constructive practices and behavior in leadership. The broad approach to inclusive leadership presented in this volume highlights correlations between inclusive leadership and myriad issues, qualities, and circumstances that serve as foundations or impact factors on it. Some contributors review contemporary concepts and challenges such as change, innovation, the bottom line, sustainability, and performance excellence against inclusive leadership. Other contributors reflect on critical practices and qualities, such as trust, passion, ethics, spirituality, and empathy, and their relationships with inclusive leadership. A range of religious and spiritual influences are also evaluated in the context of inclusive leadership, such as (but not limited to) Buddhism, Taoism, Hinduism, Jainism, and Christianity. Postgraduate students, instructors, and coaches will appreciate this comprehensive look at inclusive leadership, which has become an urgent concept to be internalized and practiced by all, regardless of positions, possessions, locations, or generations.
