Rate this book
This set includes all three books of the J. Oswald Sanders' spiritual growth Spiritual Leadership , Spiritual Discipleship , and Spiritual Maturity . In Spiritual Leadership , J. Oswald Sanders, a Christian leader for decades and the author of more than forty books, presents the key principles of leadership in both the temporal and spiritual realms. He illustrates those principles throughout with examples from godly figures like Moses, Nehemiah, the apostle Paul, David Livingstone, Charles Spurgeon, and others. With more than 1 million copies sold, this proven classic will help you to frame your leadership as spiritual service.  In Spiritual Discipleship , Sanders points out that true discipleship is more than intellectual assent to a belief in Christ; it involves the whole person and lifestyle. This book will help you embody that truth. It examines Jesus’ teaching on what it means to follow Him, helping you become the kind of Christian Jesus wants you to be—not one devised by man or even other Christians. For anyone who wants to be not just a believer in Christ, but an imitator of Him, this book is a treasured resource. In Spiritual Maturity, Sanders explores the primary source of continual growth. In three parts, structured around the persons of the Trinity, he provides clear direction for those desiring to grow strong spiritually. Complete with scriptural principles for spiritual development and study questions at the end of the text, this classic handbook is a timeless treasure.

This book will humble you as a leader. It will make you learn what it means to be a servant leader. A must read to anybody who is dedicated to serving people and not only from a spiritual perspective.

Spiritual Leadership by J Oswald Sanders is the best book on Spiritual Leadership I've ever read. It strengthens you in the area of spiritual maturity. So much wisdom, knowledge and understanding you get as a leader. The perfect book. I used mine as a workbook. It has questions for review at the end of each chapter. I will be re-reading and referencing this book on the regular.

A Must Addition To Your Theological Library!

An excellent treatise on leadership, discipleship, and maturity. This collection is soaked in scripture for the glory of God.

Spiritual Leadership is a classic and I highly recommend that it is read and re-annually.
