The need for personal transformation -- Following Jesus on the leadership journey -- Understanding the system -- Thinking systems, watching process -- Becoming a calm leader -- Going home again -- The nuclear family -- The spiritual disciplines and the path to transformation -- Learning communities.
Many books describe elements of church leadership--what it is and how to do it--but very few focus on the process of personal transformation that is central to being able to lead well. The Leader's Journey provides a blueprint and the practical tools needed to transform the lives of pastors and congregational lay leaders so that they can become truly effective leaders. Blending psychological research, biblical principles, and congregational experiences--authors Jim Herrington, Robert Creech, and Trisha Taylor offer step-by-step guidance for engaging in the personal transformation journey as part of effective congregational leadership. --From publisher's description.
