Publisher Description
Our country is facing a leadership crisis, with fewer leaders available than are needed. Even more distressing, the church is facing the same crisis. Failures in church leadership seem to be at an epidemic level, reminding us of the adage, “As the leaders go, so go the people.” With so much at stake, how can we raise up effective leaders who have genuine and lasting impact on their charge? Author John MacArthur writes on more than 60 traits every leader needs. These elements of character form the framework from which MacArthur details the qualifications and responsibilities of effective leaders no matter if they are full-time staff members or Christians seeking to serve God at church, home, work, and with friends.

"John McCarthur takes and examines the life of the Apostle Paul through the book of Acts and the church of Corinth and his great Leadership throughout. The Epilogue at the end is unbelievable and goes into great detail those individuals that both supported Paul and those that eserted him."

The Book on Leadership Listener Reviews
-
" More accurately titled "The Life of Paul." MacArthur's leadership book doesn't offer much on leadership or the life of Paul. A decent read on either topic. Possibly good source material for a class or Bible study. "
— Thomas, 3/31/2012 -
" A biblical model of leadership that goes where Maxwell does not. A great book to take church leadership, teen leadership, or potential leaders through. "
— Rock, 2/27/2011 -
" The best book on leadership- period! "
— Robert, 11/10/2010 -
" Another great book by MacArthur. MacArthur studies the life of Paul in depth to develop a pattern of biblical leadership for us to follow today. Wonderful reference for those in any form of leadership. "
— Meredith, 10/1/2009 -
" I have read many books on leadership and this one is by far the best one I have read. I would suggest everyone read it no matter what your position in leadership is! "

" Solid wisdom from a trusted man of God. "
— Kevin, 8/4/2009 -
" Not just for those in leadership positions, but for all Christians, who are called to "lead" others to Christ. MacArthur focuses on character, not style, using the apostle Paul as his example. "

" I truly enjoyed this book! John MacArthur really captured the essence of a TRUE leader in the life of Paul. As Christians we are all called to be leaders... whether its in our homes, on our jobs, or within ministry, and this book thoroughly explains why. "
— Keith, 8/25/2006 -
