Product Overview
by Dr. Michael-Angelo James Being a leader in todays world is tough in any business, but particularly so, it seems, in the church, no matter what denomination. A pastor, priest, or reverend is held to a higher standard and expected to set an example for his or her flock in all matters, not just those of a religious nature. Using specific examples from the Bible, Dr. Michael-Angelo James focuses on eight primary characteristics of great leaders as he asks, Leader, Can You Stand the Test? Characterizing Moses as obedient, Joseph as a man of vision, David as faithful, Nehemiah as focused, Jesus as humble, Peter as progressive, Paul as selfless, and Timothy as prepared, he cites verses which illustrate these qualities and how these leaders utilized them in spreading the word of God. Coming from a religious point of view and geared toward todays church leaders, Dr. Jamess words of wisdom are quite applicable in the business world as well.
