Endorsements: Christian leaders help other Christians see and
understand everything in their lives in spiritual terms. ""Scott
Cormode is a pioneer in understanding church leadership with the
theological disciplines of the faith. Making Spiritual Sense
captures in a marvelous way the distinctive character of church
leadership as the Christian leader is defined as theological
interpreter."" -Lovett H. Weems Jr., Distinguished Professor of
Church Leadership at Wesley Theological Seminary in Washington, DC,
and author of Take the Next Step: Leading Lasting Change in the
Church ""Those who know Scott Cormode well and have long respected
his teaching and leadership in church and academy have eagerly
anticipated the publication of his first in-depth study of
leadership. At last our hopes have been rewarded--and generously
so. This book demonstrates a rare breadth of scholarly knowledge
and possesses the humility and confidence that characterizes the
best leadership today. It invites those who lead to remember that
the best leaders give people the tools to think for themselves, a
fact that any leader neglects at the greatest of peril."" -Michael
Jinkins, Dean and Professor of Pastoral Theology, Austin
Presbyterian Theological Seminary, Austin, TX ""This is a
profoundly important book. Finally someone has taken seriously the
need to deeply integrate social science perspectives in relation to
a Christian understanding of leadership. Cormode creatively
integrates key theoretical insights within a theological framework
in helping Christian leaders understand how to lead by making
spiritual sense. Extensive use of narrative stories brings his
argument to life and provides accessible ways for readers to
further develop their own repertoire of meaning for leading through
sense making."" -Craig Van Gelder, Professor of Congregational
Mission, Luther Seminary, Saint Paul, MN About the Contributor(s):
Scott Cormide is the Hugh De Pree Associate Professor of Leadership
Development at Fuller Theological Seminary and the De Pree
Leadership Center. He is an ordained Presbyterian minister and the
founder of both the Academy of Religious Leadership and the Journal
of Religious Leadership.
