Basic Christian Leadership, Biblical Models of Church, Gospel and Ministry
John Stott
"God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God
chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong." (1 Corinthians
1:27)

Those in Christian leadership might suspect
that this verse invalidates the day-to-day reality of their ministries. They
often feel that they must project strength and certainty in order to preach and
minister credibly. But does this run counter to a Christian view of leadership?
John Stott fears that too many Christian leaders have uncritically adopted
secular models of leadership. The antidote, he contends, is a biblical approach
to servant leadership, exemplified by the apostle Paul in his ministry to the
church in Corinth. This volume provides a clear articulation of the nature of
leadership as well as the thoughtful study of Scripture the world has come to
expect from John Stott.
Considered by many to be the elder statesman of evangelical Christianity, John
Stott is himself a premier example of Paul's vision of humility and grace in
Christian leadership. His insights here will encourage younger generations to
follow in his steps, serving the church with the love of Christ. |
