The Unflawed Leader: Creating a Culture of Christlike Wellness in the Local Church

by Stan O. Gleason

The Unflawed Leader is a fresh look at the ultimate leader Jesus Christ in real time. Gleason situates Jesus, the only perfect leader the world has ever seen, in challenging leadership scenarios all leaders face. The only difference is that Jesus brought no unresolved emotional issues, habits, hurts, hang-ups, baggage, scars, old wounds, or dysfunction to his leadership team. He never deceived, broke trust, pitched a fit, had a colossal meltdown, manipulated, betrayed confidence, or employed guilt-motivation to get his way. It was said of him that he did "all things well." Books aplenty have been written about church leaders who lead with a limp, lead with pain, lead on empty, and lead a purpose-driven church. But we've known good, humble church members who walked with a limp, followed in pain, obeyed on empty, and were driven more like cattle than led like sheep. If you desire to create a culture of Christlike wellness in your ministry context, then this work is a must read for you.

If you’re a leader or a disciple, this book is for you. It’s written by the hands of a genuine Christ-follower who has proven himself in leadership. He is here passing on precious truths for all Apostolic leaders. It will challenge you and change you for the good.

An excellent read! This book is written to leaders but we’re all leaders or have the capacity to lead. The author breaks it down on what a healthy leader looks like, who they look up to, who they support and also what their families look like.
I am embarrassed for how long it took for me to read this but it was so good that it had to be marinated on — each time I would pick it back up, it was connecting with an old friend, I pick up where I left off. Definitely will be reading it again!

There are a couple of chapters that don't hit as squarely as others, but the ones that do are great. There is good information throughout the book. I seen to have been most impacted by the personal stories. I would recommend this to ministers and pastors. Read it as you do. Take what you need and leave what don't.
