Publisher's Description

The need for talented vigorous leaders in the church cannot be overemphasized. Such times demand active service of men and women who are guided by and devoted to Jesus Christ.

With more than 750,000 copies in print, Spiritual Leadership stands as a proven classic for developing such leadership. In these pages J. Oswald Sanders presents the key principles of leadership in both the temporal and spiritual realms, illustrating his points with examples from Scripture and biographies of eminent men of God (Moses, Nehemiah, Paul, David Livingstone, Charles Spurgeon, and others). He writes that even natural leadership qualities are God-given, and their true effectiveness can only be reached when they are used to the glory of God. Featured topics include:

The cost of leadership
The responsibility of leadership
Tests of leadership
The qualities and criteria of leadership
The art of reproducing leaders
The one indispensable requirement of leadership

Author Bio

OSWALD SANDERS (1917-1992) was a Christian leader for nearly seventy years and authored more than forty books on the Christian life including The Incomparable Christ, Spiritual Discipleship, Spiritual Leadership, and Spiritual Maturity. He left a promising law practice in his native New Zealand to serve as an instructor and administrator at the Bible College of New Zealand. Dr. Sanders later became general director of the China Inland Mission (now the Overseas Missionary Fellowship), and was instrumental in beginning many new missions projects throughout East Asia.

This is one of those books that I found myself highlighting sentences and thoughts very often. I read it over the vourse of two weeks as my schedule allowed, but slow enough to be able to digest it. I'm looking forward to reading it again. Actually, this is one of those that I will not be loaning out to others. I wholeheartedly reccomend it, but you'll have to buy your one. As a side note, this is the book that originally inspired Dr. John Maxwell to pursue learning and teaching others leadership. In many ways it provided a foundation for his current ministry.

If you are looking for resources which cover every area of leadership, this is the book. I have it on my nightstand and have read and re-read it many times. It encourages those in ministry by exposing the downsides with a witness of better things to come. It is a must for every one who is called into leadership.

We use this material at our church for leadership training. It has been so effective in the lives of our leaders because it's so easy to understand and so biblical. Thank you brother Colson for allowing yourself to be used and lead by the Lord in such a powerful way.
