Three-hundred-sixty-degree leaders don’t just direct their gift of leadership south, to the people under their care. They also learn to lead north by influencing those with authority over them, and to lead east and west by impacting their peers. But most importantly, they learn how to keep the compass needle centred by leading themselves – by keeping their own lives in tune so they can provide maximum directions or others. In the most important book he has every written, Bill Hybels shares what he has learned about Christian leadership in the nearly thirty years he has pastured Willow Creek. Courageous Leadership offers leadership strategies that have been proven and refined in the trenches. Best of all, it gives you the very essence of one of today’s foremost Christian leaders – his fervent commitment to evangelism and discipleship and his zeal to inspire fellow church leaders even as he seeks to keep growing as a leader himself. “The local church is the hope of the world, and its future rests primarily in the hands of its leaders,” Hybel insists. If unchurched people matter to you …if you love seeing believers serve passionately with their spiritual gifts …if God’s heartbeat for the church is your heartbeat as well …then this book is a must. Courageous Leadership will convince you to lead with all your might, all your skill, and all your faith. And it will give you the tools to do just that.
