Synopsis

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.

Goodreads review by David

This book is filled with babble and anecdotal stories with very little relating to actual Christian leadership. Hull uses Phil. 2 quite a bit (referring to the humility of Christ), yet he himself brags constantly on his amazing basketball career and how great a preacher he is. I do not recommend.......more
