How To Be A Team Player And Enjoy It!

by Matt Williams

Understanding Christ’s paradox of the servant-leader is an absolute necessity for success in the workplace and in ministry. Matt Williams has been an associate pastor, Christian college administrator, and has worked with pastors, staff members, and church ministries around the country for over forty years. Combining his experiences as a secular business manager, church staff member, and Christian leader, Matt applies practical principles from God's Word in How to Be a Team Player and Enjoy It on topics such as management positions and subordinate positions, communication amongst the different tiers of leadership, time management, and on desiring to love and serve others as Jesus did. Reflecting Matt's heart for people and the Lord's work, How To Be A Team Player and Enjoy It is an invaluable tool for serving the Lord and should be required reading for all Christian leaders and workers.

[Tom Brennan · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book grew on me the further into it I read. At first, it seemed rather simplistic, but as it developed more and more often I found myself saying/writing in the margin, "Boy, that's good" or "this is helpful." The author has a wide latitude of ministry experience. He's obviously rather well organized. It shows in both the layout and the content of the book. Some of his illustrations, naturally, don't apply in my situation but overall I think I found it rather edifying. If you, like me, find yourself struggling to learn how to lead a modest church staff I think you will also find it helpful.

Hard to get started with this book, but once I did I found it to be challenging. It had good admonitions, some familiar and some new. The content was valid, but some of the practical methods were dated.

By far....this is the absolutely best book that addresses being a tremendous staff member especially at a church! It shows the duty of every member is to serve! Novel idea! This book is one in a million! It did more than just stimulate....It changed! We read it together as a church staff and discussed all the benefits that each of us saw!
