360-Degree Leadership: Preaching to Transform Congregations

by Michael J. Quicke, Mike Bonem (Foreword by), Jim Herrington (Foreword)

Leadership books and seminars notwithstanding, many pastors remain unclear on how to effectively lead their congregations. Some even believe that preaching needs to take a backseat to leadership. Dismissing such comparisons as artificial, pastor and professor Michael Quicke notes how the Scriptures themselves reveal transformational leadership through proclamation by preachers. God's preachers, Quicke asserts, are inevitably his leaders. Powerful preaching and disciple-making leadership go hand in hand in the Bible, as well as in the contemporary church. Both are inspired by God's energy. The intentional pastor will be renewed to discern that biblical preaching is central to the events of church life and mission.

[Adam · Rating 3 out of 5]

Good book in that brings together preaching and leadership, unlike others, which I have never seen as separate. On the other hand, the book references and draws on so many other books, voices, & people that it becomes cumbersome reading at some points.

Having read it too many years ago and not really connected with it, rereading now it has suddenly come alive. I will read it again and again and again to guide me through my last years.
