Grace-Full Leadership: Understanding the Heart of a Christian Leader

by John C Bowling

Overview

When Christ said, Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all (Mark 10:43-44, NIV), He redefined the world of management for the Christian leader.No longer focused on bottom lines, demographics, and profit margins, Christ presents the paradigm of the washbowl and towel, the heart of a servant.Leadership within the life of the Christian community is, or ought to be, different from the world's ideal of leadership in practice and principle.In Grace-Full Leadership, explore the leadership qualities and practices that are distinct within the community of Christian leadership. Discover, when managing first as a Christian and second as a leader, how your company or organization can grow exponentially in spiritual gains—an eternity of difference from today's capital gains.
