Book excerpt: Do you want to be a better leader? Raise the threshold of your pain. Do you want your church to grow or your business to reach higher goals?

Chand is ruthlessly honest and highly practical as he examines the principles and practices that make our pain a means of fulfilling God's divine purposes for our churches, communities, and us. These features are included in this leadership treasure trove: POWERFUL, personal stories from some of the finest leaders in the world, such as Craig Groeschel, Benny Perez, Mike Kai, Lisa Bevere, Mark Chironna, Dale Bronner, Philip Wagner, Michael Pitts, and numerous others REVEALING INSIGHTS into the growth that occurs through pain in leadership roles PRACTICAL EXERCISES to help you apply the valuable principles you are learning

Download or read book Passing It On written by Myles Munroe and published by FaithWords. This book was released on 2011-05-25 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leaders everywhere, in arenas big and small, struggle with the desire and, frankly, the need to make sure their vision for the organization they have created or grown continues regardless of circumstances. And the question "what will be my legacy?" is a question all people ask themselves. Myles Munroe has observed that the tendency among leaders is to deal with this question as serious circumstances or retirement loom. Further, it is his belief that this is one of the most important decisions a leader will ever make. This book is a wakeup call. Myles Munroe wants all leaders to focus on building the right team for the future and to make it a top priority because the process is not a quick one. Properly mentoring the right people to ensure the continuation of an organization is actually a process that must be woven into that organization over a span of years or even decades. Chapter topics discussed include The Chaos of Transition The Leadership Dilemma Living Beyond Your Generation The Principles of Mentoring PASSING IT ON shows how to use the concept of mentoring within an organization to value the distinct talents and abilities of the individuals. Mentoring is the pathway to developing leaders from within; leaders who are in line with the goals of the organization; leaders who are most likely to adopt and carry a vision forward.

Download or read book Growing Church Leaders written by Ernest N. Prabhakar and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2010-11-17 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is time for a revolution in how the church nurtures new leaders. As Jim Downing of the Navigators points out, Jesus trained his disciples by imparting: * Knowledge, through teaching * Character, by modeling and example * Skills, through guided experience While knowledge can be learned anywhere, character and skills are best developed as part of a community that lives, worships, and serves together (e.g., a church). We have developed Growing Church Leaders as a way for those who are mature to train the next generation of leaders in their churches to Think Biblically, Live Wisely, and Serve Faithfully. This course is designed to help senior leaders guide a small group of faithful men and women in: * Memorizing Bible verses * Reading classic Christian books * Leading devotions, typically from Psalms or Proverbs * Studying entire chapters of the Bible, verse by verse * Exploring how Scripture applies to their lives * Responding with repentance, action, and worship Our prayer is that every growing church will invest in establishing future leaders on a solid foundation of biblical truth, Christian character, and spiritual discipline -- i.e., practical holiness.

Download or read book Leading from the Second Chair written by Mike Bonem and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2020-11-03 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They say it's lonely at the top. And it can be even lonelier when you are almost at the top. Church leaders who hold second-chair positions are under tremendous pressure. They are expected to do their jobs and provide leadership but to defer to the top leader too. It's a demanding balancing act. How can they lead effectively while serving under someone else's leadership? Leading from the Second Chair offers an invaluable resource to leaders who serve in second- (and third- and fourth-) chair roles, enabling them to become more productive, proactive, and fulfilled. The book reveals the paradoxes of second chair leadership. These leaders must be subordinate to the top leader yet lead in their own right. They should be deep in their expertise but wide in perspective. And they must be content in their jobs yet remain enthusiastic about their dreams for the future. Mike Bonem and Roger Patterson share their own and others' experiences of failure and success in this vital role. They offer support and practical advice for reshaping the way second-chair leaders can serve well and improve the overall performance of their church or organization. Leading from the Second Chair equips readers with the positive attitudes, skills, and strategies needed to become powerful leaders who will survive and thrive in God's service.

Download or read book Feed My Sheep They Are Dying written by Dr. Shirley A. Young and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2016-01-03 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twenty-first century gives a view through new lenses, revealing the church to have sheep scattering, some slowly dying with possibly uncalled shepherds. The faith-based organization is falling short of Gods Christlike representatives (servant leaders). The manual introduces leadership inventories to assess disciples for level of spiritual growth. There are leadership inventory standards, spiritual gift inventory, assessment of spiritual growth to assess FBO leaders to become servant leaders and not leaders. A youth spiritual gift inventory is available for youth leaders to consider assessing youth. The author did an exemplary job for leadership character traits that embody skills, which if applied properly will render a leader of excellence. The resource reflects the authors conclusion to her research that servant leaders in faith-based organization serving God should influence excellence. The publication is invaluable to transform aspiring and prospective servant leaders to image traits and practices of Christ. Dr. Fred Burrell, PhD, religious counsel, Trinity Theological Seminary, Newburgh, Indiana Dr. Young has compiled some noteworthy evidence and research on the ideal type of transformational leadership called Servant Leadership and applied it where it is needed the most: faith-based organizational leadership. I am proud to have mentored this fine scholar as she reached for her very meaningful dreams and turned them into a reality at the completion of her earned doctorate degree. Dr. Thomas H.
