From the Back Cover

"I highly commend this book and urge every spiritual leader to study it carefully." --Floyd McClung, Jr., director, All Nations Institute, Colorado

"Tom Marshall specializes in the uncanny knack of going to the root of leadership problems and then lovingly but scripturally applying sensible, godly remedies." --Gerald Coates, Leader Pioneer Team

What does it mean to be a leader?
Based on years of proven experience and scholarly insight, Tom Marshall gives fresh perspectives on the essence of New Testament leadership. He describes how and why it is distinct from management, administration, or ministry and offers clear guidance on topics such as:

* foresight
* trust
* criticism
* caring
* status
* timing
* failure
* honor

Understanding Leadership also emphasizes lifestyle and attitude, helping you foster interdependence while maintaining identity and integrity within your church, business, or community.
