Book excerpt: Too much attention is paid to leadership techniques and far too little to the kind of heart and mind from which the best leadership emanates. The path to truly influential leadership is found in the discipline of practices hidden from the public eye that deeply inform our public leadership. Our convictions, our call, our understanding of ourselves and heart commitments are where it all begins. Character, courage, wisdom, integrity, humility, spiritual depth, endurance, perseverance, kindness, and vision all come from a place deep inside our hearts and souls—the hidden interior and recesses of our lives, whose channels lead to deep veins of God’s work and molding.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leadership (the ability to bring people together to accomplish shared goals), be it in an organization or a church, was instituted by God from the beginning. In the context of the church, God commissioned church leadership to "go and make disciples of all nations," to win souls for His kingdom throughout the world instead of standing behind a pulpit in a conventional four walls edifice that we come to know as "church" or donning themselves with ostentatious titles, like "bishop, apostles, prophet or prophetess," to cite a few. The derailment of God's perspective for church leadership has left billions of people worldwide, unreached and disenfranchised from God's words, thereby, invoking rampant suffering, not only from the ravages of wars, hunger, abject poverty, or disease, but also the transforming power of the Gospel. In the Leadership Practices: A Global and Biblical Perspective, Drs. Cedric and Widza Bryant underscore GodaEUR(tm)s directives, His original intent of authentic biblical leadership designed to reach all people throughout the worldaEUR"all of which are encapsulated in Genesis 1:26 to Adam and Eve, to Noah in Genesis 9:1, and in Mathew 28:19aEUR"20, Jesus's mandates to the twelve disciples: "Go and make disciples of all nations." Leadership Practices: A Global and Biblical Perspectiveilluminates our understanding of the biblical inerrancy of leadership by probing on scholars' relentless pursuit to further their knowledge of leadership definition and to expose different interpretations that provide a clear picture of what leadership is and how to apply it to reach excellence. "Could the inexorable pursuits to define leadership and align its practices be the cause of manaEUR(tm)s biased predispositions from GodaEUR(tm)s intended purpose? A trend that commenced before humanity even existedaEUR|" The book accentuates the notion that leadership practices, according to God's design, was to be "global and accessible"aEUR"a Christ-centered mandate with tangible and pervasive biblical root that compels leaders to be open to change and to submit to GodaEUR(tm)s original practices.The manuscript provides the reader with a biblically based model of leadership, using numerous scriptural case-studies that illustrate the differences between what it means to operate as a leader 'of this world' and what it means to be a Christian leader 'in this world.' By following a Christ-centered model, leaders learn how 'success begins with change' and she emphasizes how leaders must first be willing to submit to change themselves before they can guide the process in others. The manuscript is filled with extensive research blending scholarly works with scriptural illustrations which collectively produce an insightful repository for leaders to draw upon as they aspire to become a global Christian leader. The book has wide applications for church leaders at the local, national, and global levels. aEUR"Dr. Richardson, Regent University

Book excerpt: The Church by its very nature is called to be hope filled and future orientated – it exists as a sign, instrument and foretaste of the coming Kingdom of God. Christian leadership, therefore, is at heart all about eschatological influence. Engaging with the work of influential theological voices such as Lesslie Newbigin, Tom Wright and Martyn Percy, "Hopeful Influence" argues that it is in the process of helping others to see, participate in or experience the world to come that Christian leadership becomes manifest. With contributions from influential leaders in different spheres of life, including Dr Eve Poole, Stephen Timms, MP, along with theologian and activist Selina Stone, Jude Padfield explores how this eschatatologically-fuelled vision might lead us towards a new manifesto for future leadership in the church, in politics, in business and the third sector, and in the home. With foreword from Paul Bayes, Bishop of Liverpool.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection examines the mind of leaders throughout the Bible to understand how thoughts and behaviors can support or sabotage leadership efforts. It is divided into three parts: the first part addresses thinking, influence, and communicating through the theoretical lenses of humility, metacognition, and personal well-being. Part Two addresses managing, motivating, and change through the theoretical lenses of leader-follower relationships and Lewin’s change model. Finally, Part Three addresses ethics, service, and character through the theoretical lenses of participative leadership, inclusivity, resilience, and mentoring. Each chapter uses a biblical example to demonstrate the role of the mind in the effectiveness of different leaders. This volume will serve as a valuable resource to researchers interested in leadership studies, particularly those examining the biblical perspective.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dynamic of leadership, there is an age-old debate about whether true leader is born or made. It is about spiritual leadership giving guide to the church, which is an organism not just an organization, and the manual is the Bible. The tool for leading the flock of God is prayer and the Word of God. Leadership is influence. As leaders, we are to influence others by setting good examples and be a servant leader. They are servant leaders because they follow Jesus. "Did not come to be served, but to serve." A leader with inquisitiveness, initiative, and involvement. The Delegate of Leadership from Exodus 18:12""27 helps us to know that we can't do it alone. Jethro's counsel was to delegate authority to others in judging the people while Moses remained a mediator between the people and God. Minor responsibilities were to be given to good men. These men were to have the following traits, many which are similar to the requirements for leadership in the church. "To empower the people to share the burden the work is too heavy for you; you cannot handle it alone " (Exod. 18:18). The essential for leadership is to get people motivated for the tasks. In the book of Nehemiah, I called it the Nehemiah principles of leadership. I learn that Nehemiah was a man who became consumed with a burden. In his example, we are reminded that whenever God uses a person to accomplish his work, it all begins with a burden. The book reveals that what was going in the heart of Nehemiah was the call of God upon him. How to handle obstacles in leadership. First thing to do is pray. We must rely on God and respected the opposition and refused to quit. Keep our eye on the big picture. Learn to pick our battle to fight. We must learn to exercise humility when opposition come our way

They are ready to hand batons of leadership, especially for poor and under-resourced communities, over to the next generation. With this book, they do just that!
