Download or read book Faithful Leaders written by Rico Tice and published by The Good Book Company. This book was released on 2021-03-01 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explore the things that really matter for a successful ministry. "Well done, good and faithful servant." Every ministry leader wants to hear these words when they meet their Lord. But what does successful ministry look like? There are many books on leadership strategies and church structures, but this one looks at what matters most: the character and attitude of church leaders. It recognizes that the spiritual health of the church leaders in large part determines the spiritual health of the congregation and therefore the success of the ministry. In this short, punchy, challenging and at times surprising book, Rico Tice draws on decades of experience in church leadership to call fellow pastors and others with oversight of areas of church ministry to define success biblically, fight their sin, lead themselves and serve their churches. A must-read on pastoral leadership for pastors, elders, worship leaders, youth leaders and anyone else with a leadership role in church ministry.

Download or read book Lead like Christ written by A.W. Tozer and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2021-07-13 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Does Christ-Centered Leadership Look Like? As a Christian, does your leadership approach look any different from that of those who don't follow Christ? Throughout the Bible, God shows us what leadership looks in His kingdom, and sometimes it can seem upside-down. The first shall be last. The master shall be the servant. But how can we apply these counterintuitive truths in our world today? Rather than focusing on the nuts and bolts of management, Lead like Christ uses the book of Titus to take a close look at what biblical leadership entails. Using Paul's instructions to his young ministry partner as a guide, Tozer takes us through themes of grace, servanthood, spiritual boldness, and humility toward the Word of God. This foundation will lead to powerful, long-lasting change in both your own leadership role today as well as in God's eternal kingdom.

Download or read book The Unflawed Leader written by Stan O. Gleason and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-06-10 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Unflawed Leader is a fresh look at the ultimate leader Jesus Christ in real time. Gleason situates Jesus, the only perfect leader the world has ever seen, in challenging leadership scenarios all leaders face. The only difference is that Jesus brought no unresolved emotional issues, habits, hurts, hang-ups, baggage, scars, old wounds, or dysfunction to his leadership team. He never deceived, broke trust, pitched a fit, had a colossal meltdown, manipulated, betrayed confidence, or employed guilt-motivation to get his way. It was said of him that he did "all things well." Books aplenty have been written about church leaders who lead with a limp, lead with pain, lead on empty, and lead a purpose-driven church. But we've known good, humble church members who walked with a limp, followed in pain, obeyed on empty, and were driven more like cattle than led like sheep. If you desire to create a culture of Christlike wellness in your ministry context, then this work is a must read for you.

Download or read book Tozer on Christian Leadership written by A. W. Tozer and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2007-09-10 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leadership Wisdom from the Late, Great A.W. Tozer A.W. Tozer knew spiritual leadership as a grave task, one demanding great devotion and even greater dependence. Tozer for the Christian Leader makes the late pastor Tozer into your personal mentor. Saying the hard things you need to hear as well as words of grace to build you up, he displays God’s Word in its full spectrum: as a sword and as bread. Ignore him and you forfeit the wealth of his wisdom for you. Plug your ears and you silence his word that instructs so highly. Read without action and you waste treasures given freely. Tozer will inspire you to work hard for God. He will call you to cultivate a Spirit-filled heart. He will urge you to have great faith—to see God big, pray expectantly, and worship fully. He will help you be a better leader, one fit for service to the Most High God. These daily reflections, grouped thematically by month, are ideal readings for any Christian leader—pastor or otherwise.
Download or read book The Christian Leader written by Bill Hull and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2016-05-31 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if everything you've heard about leadership is wrong? Secular models of leadership rooted in pragmatic success dominate Christian leadership in the West. It makes our work impersonal and exploitive. And, at worst, it serves the leader rather than those the leader leads. We need a different style of leadership—one patterned after Jesus. We need to learn to influence others out of our character, for that is what Jesus did. The Christian Leader is not about improving your church, your work, or your family; it is about changing how you lead. It does more than teach you how to modify your behavior; it shows you how to change the sources of your behavior—your motives and reasons for being a Christian leader. In the end, as everything you know and believe about Christian leadership is transformed, it will lead to transformation in those you lead and serve.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings the best of leadership theory and research together with biblical reflection and examples of leadership in action to offer a practical guide to Christian leaders.

The authors show how contemporary theories such as transformational leadership, authentic leadership, and servant leadership take an important step toward prioritizing and empowering followers who work with leaders to accomplish organizational goals. Irving and Strauss organize their book around "nine empowering practices," making it accessible to students, church leaders, and business leaders. Integrating solid research in leadership studies with biblical and theological reflection on the leadership ideas that are most compatible with Christian faith, this book is an important resource for all Christian students of leadership.
