"How can I grow as a church leader?" If you have ever asked yourself that question, this book will help you. Now more than ever, we must nurture church leaders since the church stands on a new "missionary" plain that requires us to view the world differently. Lay leaders today hunger for a deeper Christian experience and spiritually growing leaders can face the challenge of today's world. This book provides practical helps for developing lay leaders to address the church in a changing age and aims for the growth of leaders in their personal life and in their skills for ministry.

Whether you've just been named to your first church leadership position or have been chairing committees and boards for years, you'll find practical and spiritual help in these 52 short devotions. Four sections emphasize: What Christian leadership is Characteristics of effective leaders Skills you need to develop How to recognize and cope with the unique challenges church leadership poses The devotions are ideal for opening and focusing church meetings, as well as for offering personal direction and inspiration to those who have been called to leadership roles. An appendix at the end of the book offers questions for discussion of each devotion.
