Finished reading "Congregational Leadership in Anxious Times"


As most people know, I love to read. In this blog I plan on commenting on the books that I read. Maybe for others, but also to record my thoughts at the time. This past book was insightful and helpful. Most books on leadership today deal with only a charisma paradigm, this is a beneficial idea, but does not transcend into true leadership. The premise of the book is maintaining self in a anxious organization. It also points out behavior of unhealthy people, and proper functioning of healthy individuals in a chaotic environment. Anyone dealing with congregational life in a leadership role would benefit from this book.
