Customer Reviews
Excellent Biblically-Based Leadership Book!
Leighton Ford has written an excellent book for the Christian leader. Among the principles Ford covers include:
1. Treat others as people created by God, not things to be used.
2. A leader has a transcendant purpose and is not distracted from it.
3. The servant leader depends on God's timing and seeks to glorify God.
4. True leadership is marked by servanthood, not lordship over others.
5. Leaders will always face conlict, just like Jesus did.
6. Those who display toughness at all times probably lack inner security.
7. God is more interested in our character instead of our actions.
8. We need times alone with Christ to see if we are serving Him or self.
An excellent and highly recommended book for leaders and aspiring leaders (everyone is a leader in some way)!
Transforming Leadership
Of the hunderds of leadership books I have read, "Transforming Leadership" by Leighton Ford is by far the most inspiring and informational.
An Absolute Must Read
Leighton Ford, leader or leaders, spiritual director, crusader, evangelist, writes an amazing book on Leadership. The whole book revolved around the fact that we must be servant leaders as Christ modeled for us in the 1st Century. Leighton is humble, and strong at the same time in his presentation of this material. You can see the results of him putting this model into practice throughout his life and how God has used him to be an amazing influencer for the Kingdom. Every emerging leader should take note of what is said in the this book, and no pastor should pass it by either. Thanks to the author for this insightful, and compelling work on leadership.
