Visionary pastor Michael Slaughter calls all aspiring leaders to a life of faith, balance, and purpose. Operating on the principle that all leadership begins with self-leadership, the book outlines five crucial disciplines: * Devotion to God * Readiness for lifelong learning * Investing in key relationships * Visioning for the future * Eating and Exercise for life. Readers will gain insights and advice for enriching the spiritual, intellectual, interpersonal, missional, and physical areas of their lives, all of which are integral to effectiveness as a leader.
Every follower of Christ needs to find the self-management practices that create momentum for life, as spelled out in the acronym D.R.I.V.E.: Devotion to God; Readiness for Lifelong Learning; Investing in Key Relationships; Visioning for the Future; and Eating and Exercise. Self-leadership precedes strategic leadership. (Church Life)
Whether we are conscious of it or not, we fear difference. That often unwarranted fear leads us to create enemies in our hearts and minds. Growing out of the experience of a multi-cultural congregation in which diversity is both valued and feared, Where Once We Feared Enemies offers an uncompromising prophetic vision of the American church's identity and mission. Stroupe firmly grounds a liberal social viewpoint within the biblical and theological traditions of the church, and he calls us to hear God's claim on us in our place and in our time. Underlying his powerful messages is the fundamental conviction that the barriers which separate us from our neighbors have been brought down in Jesus Christ. This book will be an indispensable addition to any pastor's library. It is also inspiring and enlightening reading for anyone interested in the future of the American church, as well as its role in the continuing stories of race relations, civil rights, and peace and justice issues.
