More About This Book

Overview

Jesus had no paid staff or sales and marketing department behind him, yet he inspired others to carry His message around the world. Simply put, he was the greatest, most inspiring leader in history.

Bob Briner (1935-1999) was an Emmy Award-winning television producer and widely respected businessman.  He authored eight books including the classic Roaring Lambs.  With musician Michael W. Smith, he cohosted the nationally syndicated radio show of the same name.

Ray Pritchard is president of Keep Believing Ministries that includes a national preaching ministry, outreach to China, and other goodwill efforts.  He and his wife have three sons and live in Tupelo, Mississippi.

Bob Briner, co-founder of ProServe Television, extracts management techniques from the Book of Mark.

Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly
The business world is rife today with books about leadership styles (e.g., Covey's Seven Habits of Highly Effective People). In their book, Briner and Pritchard hold up the example of Jesus as a leader worth emulating by modern leaders. The book is composed of 51 short reflections on verses of the Gospel of Mark that demonstrate the principles of Jesus's style of leadership. Each chapter opens with a long passage from Mark and then focuses on one key verse from that longer passage. The remainder of each chapter is a mini-devotion on the particular leadership quality illustrated by each passage. For example, Briner and Pritchard narrate the story of Billy Graham and the temptations he has faced as a great modern leader as an illustration of Mark's story of the temptation of Jesus by Satan. Some of the other principles of leadership that emerge from this book include the ability to delegate, the practice of strategic withdrawal and the practice of loyalty and honesty. Because of its choppy style and its vignette-like structure, the book ultimately lacks any coherent vision of leadership style. (Sept.)

Meet the Author

Bob Briner was a leading figure in professional sports management, an Emmy Award-winning TV producer, and president of ProServ Television. He was also a prolific writer, best known for his book Roaring Lambs, a call for the church to begin shaping culture rather than being shaped by it. He wrote regularly for the New York Times and Sports Illustrated and also coauthored The Leadership Lessons of Jesus. Bob died of cancer in the summer of 1999, survived by Marty, his wife of more than forty years, and their three children.

Ray Pritchard is president of Keep Believing Ministries that includes a national preaching ministry, outreach to China, and other goodwill efforts. Among his books are Fire and Rain: The Wild-Hearted Faith of Elijah, He's God and We're Not, and In the Shadow of the Cross. He and his wife have three sons and live in Tupelo, Mississippi.

    Leadership is what we need

    This is the best model leader I can envision. I have read and studied leaders and the styles they use all of my adult life, and Mr. Briner sheds light on an aspect of Jesus that was always there, but I never saw before... I use it as a model for cadets and junior employees I work with. Congrats for an outstanding resource.
