Resumen del Editor

God-Driven Leadership is a call to follow God’s direction, given to us clearly in His Word, in every aspect of life and ministry. The Christian leader is challenged to view the current state of church affairs, his faith in God’s ability to act, and his own personal life in view of what God has unmistakably directed in the Bible. The reader who accepts this challenge and applies the truths herein to his life will see great benefit both in this life and the life to come. God asks for nothing less than our whole selves devoted entirely to Him and His cause if we are to lead His Church through the 21st Century and beyond. “During my 50 years of ministry, I have read countless books and articles on leadership and have been associated with many successful leaders in a variety of professions. I don’t think I have learned anything from these men and women that isn’t contained in Barry Davis’ book. Drawing extensively from Scripture and punctuating his narrative with engaging illustrations, Barry provides practical suggestions on how you can be a more effective leader at work, home and church. Whether you are a seasoned leader or someone who aspires to be a better leader or if you just want to gain new Biblical insights on life and ministry, this is a book for you.” Bob Russell Senior Minister (Retired) Southeast Christian Church, Louisville, KY “The world knows more than it would ever need to know about human-driven leadership. On every side we see evidences of the tragedies resulting from strong-willed men and women rising to take over the reins of governments, dead certain the hand of God is on them because of personalities or popularity or brute force. Then, Barry Davis calls us back to reality. “God-Driven Leadership” is the standard. In a day when many who claim to be God’s anointed for this church or that movement rely on the same traits as the carnal – force of personality, popularity, eloquence, etc… – we need to hear again the plan from heaven. Thank you, Barry Davis. We need your book.” Joe McKeever, D.Min. Pastor, Author, former Director of Missions for the Southern Baptist Churches of New Orleans “In this noteworthy volume, Dr. Barry Davis presents in contemporary terms the admonition of Paul to Timothy: Watch your life and doctrine closely. Persevere in them, because if you do, you will save both yourself and your hearers (1 Timothy 4:16, NIV). Dr. Davis argues that successful leadership is the result of an orthodoxy that is biblical in nature and an orthopraxy derived from intimacy with God. You will be challenged by this book to reexamine your approach to leadership in order to enhance your contribution to the Kingdom of God.” Russell A. Morris, D.Min., Ph.D. Lead Pastor, Harvest Hills Church of God Post-graduate Supervisor, South African Theological Seminary
