Few leaders will admit it, but again and again the growth of their organizations outruns their skills. If you're one of those leaders, you know the result: as the job grows bigger than you are, you get disoriented by a world of unfamiliar challenges.

Because you invariably neglect the new political, personal, strategic, and interpersonal skills needed to manage yourself and others.

Drawing on his own experience with losses and tragedies through the death of his young wife and, more recently, the death of his 16-year-old son, John Mark Hicks tells the story of God through his own experiences of suffering.
