"No one is better qualified to tackle the thorny challenges of
cross-cultural leadership than Sherwood Lingenfelter. "Leading
Cross-Culturally" brings together a rare blend of anthropology,
leadership theory, and theology that calls cross-cultural team
members into covenant relationships centered on Christ and the
cross. This is practical missiology at its best."--Tom Steffen,
School of Intercultural Studies, Biola University
"With missionaries traveling from everywhere to everywhere, a
book on cross-cultural leadership is urgently needed. Lingenfelter
builds on his wide global experience and illustrates powerful
principles with insightful examples and Scripture."--James E.
Plueddemann, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School; former
international director, Serving In Mission
"Lingenfelter combines his intercultural experience and
judicious study of cross-cultural leadership with
biblical-theological reflections and creative use of empirical
cases. This book should be in the hands of everyone already in
cross-cultural leadership as well as those who are considering
entering the field."--Lalsangkima Pachuau, Asbury Theological
Seminary
"A compelling volume. As a practitioner, trainer, and instructor
of leaders and teams in ministry and missions, I will have to
include this book in my required texts. In fact, it has challenged
some of my own assumptions about this difficult aspect of kingdom
work."--Mike Barnett, Columbia International University Seminary
and School of Missions
"A tremendous book that combines the best theory and practice
with the kind of perspective that comes only from vast personal
experience."--Earl Creps, Berkeley Church Planting Project
"In this insightful andexceptionally practical book,
Lingenfelter points us to the three essential components for
lasting kingdom impact: leadership, cultural values, and the Word
of God."--Bambang Budijanto, Compassion International
"An excellent resource on exercising leadership in
cross-cultural contexts. Lingenfelter goes directly to the heart of
the matter--building a covenant community of trust."--John Watters,
Wycliffe Bible Translators International
"This is a remarkable book. It is crafted out of life and
honesty and reflects Lingenfelter's own pilgrimage. It is grounded
in Scripture and deep spirituality, protecting leadership from mere
technique and transforming it into discipleship
principles."--William D. Taylor, World Evangelical Alliance and the
Mission Commission
"Lingenfelter provides another significant contribution that
takes culture seriously and the Bible authoritatively. This
resource will allow global leaders to learn and discuss together
their shared desire to serve Christ's kingdom."--Byron D. Klaus,
Assemblies of God Theological Seminary, Springfield, MO
