Learning Leadership from Nehemiah

"CHRISTIAN LEADERS ARE DEEPLY CONCERNED ABOUT THE FULFILLMENT OF GOD'S PLAN AND PURPOSE. IN DEPENDENCE ON HIM, THEY DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT."If you are a hungry, passionate kingdom leader, this book is for you. Taking the life and leadership of Nehemiah, Dave Kraft gleans twelve principles and infuses them with his insights and experiences from forty-eight years of pastoral leadership. The result is a book that combines biblical faithfulness with practical wisdom. Every leader who has spent time in the trenches discovers quickly the pressures, challenges and obstacles that can take the wind out of your sails and reduce your God-size vision to a forgotten-dream of the past. It is easy to lose perspective in the daily flow of ministry. As we follow Nehemiah and draw from his leadership, we gain insights that refuel our own leadership and put the wind back in our sails. At the heart of Nehemiah isn't just a courageous and bold leader, but rather a dependent faith in the God who sets his heart ablaze. The lessons in the pages ahead don't just inspire us to model Nehemiah, they inspire us to remember the same God who has called, empowered and equipped us for his purposes. Don't give up, don't give in, don't settle. Refuse the status-quo. God is calling us to pursue something greater.
