Liderança
"Este livro é o complemento perfeito para o Vocação Perigosa de Tripp. A advertência quanto à 'amnésia evangélica funcional' descreve muito bem por que este livro é necessário. Os líderes não precisam de mais ideias engenhosas. Os líderes precisam de mais graça. Eles precisam de mais evangelho." Daniel L. Akin

About the author
Paul David Tripp
132 books1,514 followersPaul was born in Toledo, Ohio to Bob and Fae Tripp on November 12, 1950. Paul spent all of his growing years in Toledo until his college years when his parents moved to Southern California.
At Columbia Bible College from 1968-1972, (now Columbia International University) Paul majored in Bible and Christian Education. Although he had planned to be there for only two years and then to study journalism, Paul more and more felt like there was so much of the theology of Scripture that he did not understand, so he decided to go to seminary. Paul met Luella Jackson at College and they married in 1971. In 1971, Paul took his first pastoral position and has had a heart for the local church ever since. After college, Paul completed his Master of Divinity degree at the Reformed Episcopal Seminary (now known as Philadelphia Theological Seminary) in Philadelphia (1972-1975). It was during these days that Paul’s commitment to ministry solidified. After seminary, Paul was involved in planting a church in Scranton, Pennsylvania (1977-1987) where he also founded a Christian School. During the years in Scranton, Paul became involved in music, traveling with a band and writing worship songs. In Scranton, Paul became interested in biblical counseling and decided to enroll in the D.Min program in Biblical Counseling at Westminster Theological Seminary, Philadelphia. Paul then became a faculty member of the Christian Counseling and Education Foundation (CCEF) and a lecturer in biblical counseling at Westminster Theological Seminary, Philadelphia. Paul has also served as Visiting Professor at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky.
In 2009, Paul joined the faculty of Redeemer Seminary (daughter school of Westminster) in Dallas, Texas as Professor of Pastoral Life and Care.[1]
Beginning in June, 2006, Paul became the President of Paul Tripp Ministries, a non-profit organization, whose mission statement is "Connecting the transforming power of Jesus Christ to everyday life." In addition to his current role as President of Paul Tripp Ministries, on January 1, 2007, Paul also became part of the pastoral staff at Tenth Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia, PA where he preached every Sunday evening and lead the Ministry to Center City through March, 2011 when he resigned due to the expanding time commitments needed at Paul Tripp Ministries.
Paul, Luella, and their four children moved to Philadelphia in 1987 and have lived there ever since. Paul is a prolific author and has written twelve books on Christian living which are sold internationally. Luella manages a large commercial art gallery in the city and Paul is very dedicated to painting as an avocation.[2] Paul’s driving passion is to help people understand how the gospel of the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ really does speak with practical hope into all the things they will face in this broken world. Paul is a pastor with a pastor’s heart, a gifted speaker, his journey taking him all over the world, an author of numerous books on practical Christian living, and a man who is hopelessly in love with Luella.

Paul Tripp clássico. A leitura toda é voltada para o coração do líder, no contexto da construção de uma comunidade de líderes que seja saudável, tanto para proteção dos seus integrantes quanto para real produtividade evangélica. O livro exorta e consola, promovendo reflexões profundas sobre uma visão de liderança que flui de uma compreensão bíblica do evangelho.

Paul Tripp escreve um livro sobre liderança voltado àqueles que servem: sem ser extenso, ele traz princípios chaves que podem ser colocados em prática em qualquer comunidade de fé ou qualquer nível de hierarquia de uma igreja, do conselho ou direção até em pequenos grupos. Ele conta relatos de sua experiência pessoal e de vezes em que foi chamado a ajudar, mas também usa histórias e versículos da Bíblia para ilustrar seus princípios e torna o embasamento mais forte.
Em todo capítulo, ele mostra a vulnerabilidade da posição do líder, identifica ameaças e problemas que toda liderança enfrenta, mas traz também a resposta que é a graça e misericórdia de Deus, de quem a comunidade de líderes é apenas instrumento.
Assim, esse é um livro de liderança que não exalta o trabalho, capacidade e potencial do líder, não oferece técnicas e estratégias para ter um ministério ou grupo que atinja os objetivos com sucesso, como outros livros sobre liderança, mas que sirva a Deus e a comunidade, amando a Deus e ao próximo.
É interessante a sistematização líder em princípios como forma didática, mas alguns pontos parece repetidos ou extensões de pontos anteriores, como o autor mesmo afirma, então me pareceu que havia uma intenção deliberada em chegar ao número de 12 princípios – e então essa quantidade poderia ser menor, ou mesmo maior, com criatividade.
De qualquer forma, é uma maneira de reforçar atitudes desejáveis em um líder cristão, principalmente a necessidade de ter a identidade, o foco e a atenção em Cristo, e ter uma comunidade ao redor disposta a apoiar a caminhada de santificação e maturidade espiritual uns dos outros.
