Shepherd: Becoming a Leader Worth Following
Discover a leadership model shaped by dirt, devotion, and the heart of the Good Shepherd.
In Becoming a Leader Worth Following, pastor and field guide Scott Johnson invites readers to rediscover biblical leadership that feels both ancient and urgently needed today. Drawing from nearly three decades of Christian leadership, pastoral ministry, and hands-on experience tending sheep, Johnson reveals how presence, consistency, and compassion form the foundation of true influence.
Shepherd blends Scripture, storytelling, and leadership insight to guide readers through twelve principles drawn from the life of Jesus—the ultimate servant leader. Each chapter provides practical tools for leading with wisdom and courage in every sphere of church, business, family, and community.
If you’re a pastor, mentor, or everyday leader longing for clarity in the chaos of modern leadership, Shepherd will help you find your footing. Learn to guide with grace, lead with conviction, and carry the weight of responsibility like a shepherd—steady, faithful, and worth following.
If you’re ready to take what you’re reading and make it a daily rhythm, pair this book with my 60-day journal, Set the Tone. It’s a simple but proven way to bring order, gratitude, and purpose to each day. Together, Shepherd and Set the Tone offer both vision and practice — the heart and the habit of steady leadership.
