Overview

How did Jesus lead?

What are the key characteristics of effective leadership that he looked for in his disciples, and that they in turn passed on to later generations?

In this clear-sighted and highly motivating book, Michael Green sets out the vital answers to those questions to be found throughout the New Testament.

Beginning with the Gospels, and then moving on to the teachings of Peter and Paul, he helpfully draws together the radical principles of good leadership that we need to apply if we’re to succeed in growing and supporting the church in our day as the apostles did in theirs.
