This book provides a good summary of important managerial skills. Briner does a good job of correlating these skills with the life and teachings of Jesus although at times he seems to be reaching to make the correlation. I'm new to management and I chose this book because of the title. It is an easy read. I enjoyed Briner's engaging writing style. Each management skill is presented individually in a chapter, which allows for easy class discussion. Overall I think it is a great book for managers and Christians.

Having read dozens of books, and listened to plenty of tapes on management, this handy book clearly summarized what any "economic ministry" (business) must follow to successfully serve God by serving His people. It's even a better resource for faith communities and their leaders. Get one for your pastors, priests and ministers. It makes a great thank you gift!

Mr. Briner does an excellent job of bringing out some of the basic principles of management and tying them into the teachings of Christ. Very readable and thought-provoking without (pardon the pun) preaching.
