Grace-Full Leadership: Understanding the Heart of a Christian Leader by John C. Bowling

When Christ said, 'Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all' (Mark 10:43-44, NIV), He redefined the world of management for the Christian leader.No longer focused on bottom lines, demographics, and profit margins, Christ presents the paradigm of the washbowl and towel, the heart of a servant.L When Christ said, 'Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all' (Mark 10:43-44, NIV), He redefined the world of management for the Christian leader.No longer focused on bottom lines, demographics, and profit margins, Christ presents the paradigm of the washbowl and towel, the heart of a servant.Leadership within the life of the Christian community is, or ought to be, different from the world's ideal of leadership in practice and principle.In Grace-Full Leadership, explore the leadership qualities and practices that are distinct within the community of Christian leadership.

He comes from good stock. His father, H. LaVern Smith (mother, Eunice), was also a Nazarene pastor serving in South Dakota, Iowa and Kansas. His four siblings are all devoted to Jesus. Larry and RoseMary are good Christian Nazarene lay people Iowa. Lynnette, and husband, Verlin Knight, serve Jesus as "Baptarenes" in Corpus Christi, TX. Janet and husband, Warren Neal, were career medical missionaries in Papua New Guinea and pioneered our Nazarene work in East Timor. Bruce and Caye are immersed in ministry at Skyline Wesleyan Church (San Diego) and Pt. Loma Nazarene University respectively. To say that the Church of the Nazarene is important to Wes (and Colleen) is a powerful understatement! Be warned. This book is both provocative and inspirational. Wes is convinced that the Church of the Nazarene is both a bona fide treasure and that the treasure has the potential of transforming into a true tragedy. Decisions that we make and actions we take in the near term are going to have long term and vital implications. Inaction will kill us. This book should be read, digested and acted upon by every leader in the church...Pastors, Staff Members, Board Members, and leadership on the General, District and University levels. Wes's thoughts are meant to form personal conversations and group discussions throughout the denomination. Feel free to contact and visit with Wes on his Facebook page.
