Edgar Elliston has a rare quality: the ability to set biblical truths in a context that is informed academically and relevant practically. Whether you are in Kerela, Kansas, or Kenya, Elliston gives you a biblical base to evaluate secular leadership models, and condenses for you the essence of the process God is using globally to raise up local church leadership. There is nothing else like it
—Thomas A. Wolf, Senior Pastor, The Church on Brady, Los Angeles, California
This is no ordinary book about leadership development. It is intensely realistic, culturally sensitive, biblically insightful, practically useful, and spiritually focused. Dr. Elliston clearly identifies the Biblical values that are foundational in Christian leadership development.
—Charles Cook, President. North American Christian Convention of Christian Churches/ Churches of Christ
A valuable book for trainers working in inner-city local church-based leadership training institutes. I found the chapter on The Existing Leaders Role in Leadership Development to be most useful in our work of training leaders for inner-city Los Angeles. I heartily recommend it as a resource for inner-city training schools
