The principles in this book can be applied both in the secular workplace and in churches. As they are applied, unity and success are inevitable.

Best book yet for ministry leaders

I found this the best written, most practical, and most encouraging book yet for associate pastors or anyone in christian ministry. I think it would form the basis of a great leadership training class for churches. I plan on using it in teaching the leadership of our church. Great read!

This was a gift from my secretary.

One day I arrived at work to find this book lying on my desk. It was a gift from my secretary. However, the book wasn't the gift, the concept inside was. This was her way of telling me that we were a team and that she would always support me. That day I felt truly blessed.PROS: This book describes a team relationship in which the team members are willing to lay down their own self interests for the leader. The author equates those working for the pastor with Old Testament armor bearers to the kings. Any leader would be humbled to be the recepient of such loyalty and faithfulness.CONS: These ideas do contain danger. The leader must be an honorable person. Power hungry leaders could take advantage of such support. This book, written from the perspective of the support team, needs to be balanced with a similar book of godly leadership in which the leader copies Jesus and leads on his or her knees with a washbasin and a towel.

1 Peter 4:10

This book is a MUST READ for anyone called to the ministry. You must first learn how to be a servant before you can become a leader. Terry Nance tells us from his own personal experiences, how and why we should serve the leaders and shepherds that God has called us to serve under. Ministry Leaders cannot do every single thing in the church, that is why it is your job to step up to the plate and get off from warming the bench and stop watching everyone else play the game. We as servants must help fulfill the God given vision given to our Apostle or Pastor and God will ensure that our own visions and dreams come to pass. We must bloom where we are planted and be willing to submit not only to God, but also to the leaders He has set over us.1 Peter 4:10 sums it up plainly: "Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms." - 1 Peter 4:10 NIV
