So many Christian leaders today have failed us--yet Jesus still beckons us to pray for laborers to work in His harvest fields. In this insightful, hands-on book, Lee Grady points us to an unlikely apostle named Paul, whose life of courage, sacrifice, and genuine love offers the best template for what a Christian leader should be. Through short, powerful chapters, Grady uncovers 21 key leadership principles modeled by Paul, including why--and how--effective Christian leaders must

· die to their own ambitions for power, influence, and wealth

· love people passionately

· cultivate a dynamic life of prayer and fasting

· learn to use the Holy Spirit's gifts

· have close friends, teamwork, and accountability

· dismantle barriers that restrict women and ethnic minorities

· be willing to engage in spiritual warfare to spread the gospel

· stop bending Scripture to conform to culture

· survive times of adversity

While Paul lived centuries ago, the legacy of his poured-out life echoes across the ages--and is the transformed, radical, fully surrendered example we need today. Free additional small group resources online.
