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.
