Book excerpt: Building and Sustaining a Thriving Leadership Culture Essential to every healthy church is a biblical model of leadership. In the New Testament, church leadership is built around a team of elders working together, each bringing his own unique skills and gifts to the cause of shepherding the flock God entrusted to them. However, in many churches today the principle of plurality in leadership is often misunderstood, mistakenly applied, or completely ignored. Dave Harvey encourages church leaders to prioritize plurality for the surprising ways that it helps churches to flourish. This book not only builds a compelling case for churches to adopt and maintain biblical elder pluralities guided by solid leadership but also supplies practical tools to help elders work together for transformation.

This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered what separates a healthy church from an unhealthy church when they have the same doctrine (and even methods) on paper? The long-term health and durability of a church simply cannot exceed the health of her elders who lead, teach, shepherd, and pray the church forward. Therefore, building and maintaining a healthy plurality of elders is the key to durability. Yet a healthy plurality is a delicate thing working through hardship and the difficulties of relationship while pursuing the noble task of eldership. If you wish to grow deeper in your theology of eldership to lead with a healthy, biblical vision of plurality, then this is your "How-To" guide.

Book excerpt: The church is experiencing a leadership crisis. What can we do to prevent pastors from leaving the ministry? For every celebrity pastor exiting the ministry in the spotlight, there are many more lesser-known pastors leaving in the shadows. Pastor and best-selling author Paul David Tripp argues that lurking behind every pastoral failure is the lack of a strong leadership community. Tripp draws on his decades of ministry experience to give churches twelve gospel principles necessary to combat this leadership crisis. Each of these principles, built upon characteristics such as humility, dependency, and accountability, will enable new and experienced leaders alike to focus their attention on the ultimate leadership model: the gospel.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These days "getting religion" is generally considered a rather quaint thing of the past. "Getting spirituality," on the other hand, is the hottest thing on the market. In fact, corporate-sponsored spiritual salve is becoming the most popular prescription for the overworked and soul-weary employees. But for many Christians, this antidote has become its own epidemic. How is this epidemic infecting the church? How should the church respond as a community of believers? According to authors Michael Budde and Robert Brimlow, the church must resist becoming the "chaplain to capitalism." Christianity Incorporated reminds us that Christ-centered discipleship is fundamentally at odds with consumer capitalist priorities. The church must have a mission and a voice in society that is distinct from, rather than in chorus with, watered-down corporate spirituality. Christianity Incorporated is a wake-up call for all Christians. Courageous, current, and accessible, this book will provide guidance and insight to anyone concerned with pursuing Christian discipleship in our consumer culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the many noteworthy characters which color the pages of Scripture, there is one who has given and continues to give insight and inspiration to people of faith for over 25 centuries. His name is Solomon--the third ruler of Israel and the second son born to King David and the beautiful Bathsheba . . . Why is it that Solomon has spanned the centuries as an icon of the faithful? What are the keys to his amazing success as a leader of people and as a servant of God? What do the life and legacy of Solomon have to say to persons of our day who are seeking to be faithful to God and beneficial to our society? These are the questions which this book seeks to address. --from the Introduction Samuel, building upon his own experience as a pastor of a mega-church, shares Solomon's four keys of leadership found in 1 Kings: -Wisdom: 1 Kings 3:4-13 -Work: 1 Kings 5:1-18 -Worship: 1 Kings 8:1-11 -Witness: 1 Kings 10:1-9 Samuel uses a biblical model from several different versions of the Bible to help clergy and other church leaders understand the dynamics of good leadership so they can become more effective leaders and help to grow their congregations. The book includes study questions.
