"If you are in a position of positive influence, if you exercise
leadership in any way, your faith in God gives you a power-a hidden
power-that will allow you to make an enduring difference in the
lives of other people and organizations. But how does that power
work?" So says Mel Lawrenz in this fresh look at leadership which
offers practical and biblical guidance to believers who want to
have a deep influence and who want to know: What is the proper use
of authority and power? Where do good ideas come from? How can we
deal with failure? What does God expect of us? Drawing from more
than thirty years of experience in pastoral ministry, Lawrenz
writes for Christians in any position of influence. This book
provides a new baseline for 21st century Christian leadership,
addressing issues such as: * building integrity * seizing
opportunities * exploring new horizons * speaking into crises *
receiving power * accepting authority * promoting truth * managing
expectations * dealing with criticism Using real-life examples, key
Scripture passages, and history, Lawrenz shows that when believers
align their responsibility to lead with the teaching of Jesus and
the work of God's Spirit, their spiritual influence will have
integrity and enduring effectiveness. "Lawrenz gives us hope that
the leadership pendulum which has swung from 'over- spiritualized'
to 'de-spiritualized' in recent generations may have finally come
to rest where it always belonged-upon Jesus Christ." - Skye
Jethani, Senior Editor, Leadership Journal, from the foreword "It
is exciting to think about believers at every level of society
rising to a new call to exercise powerful spiritual influence. In
his newest book Mel Lawrenz has given us all a new baseline for
leadership that is personal, wise, and spiritual. It spans the
generations and reaches across cultures. Just think what will
happen if believers in positions of influence tie into the wisdom
and the power that comes from God in order to bring restoration in
our broken world!" - Mark Batterson, Lead Pastor, National
Community Church in Washington, D.C.
Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award "Eva not breathing. Pray."
That text message was Mel Lawrenz's entry into the harsh reality of
losing his thirty-year-old daughter. Things would never be the
same. How could he and his family cope with this devastating loss?
In this narrative of grief, Pastor Mel Lawrenz chronicles how his
family struggled to survive the sudden death of their beloved
daughter. In raw, vivid episodes, he describes the immediacy of the
pain and the uncertainty of what comes next. In the agony of
traumatic loss, Lawrenz apprehends the realities of love and life
and offers insights on how to navigate our life priorities before
or after tragedy hits. You are not alone. You too can find a way
forward.
'La influencia espiritual es provocada por el Espiritu de Dios,
cuya obra consiste en transformar al espiritu humano,
devolviendonos la forma original con la cual Dios nos diseno. Esto
sucede cuando el Espiritu logra influir ---in fluir--- en nosotros.
Y se produce a lo largo de miles de pasos escondidos e
imperceptibles.' En este novedoso estudio de lo que es el
liderazgo, Mel Lawrenz sostiene que necesitamos mirar mas alla de
la superficie, hasta el nucleo mismo de la dinamica espiritual de
la vida, para comprender mejor como los lideres pueden tener una
influencia duradera en la vida de las personas y de las
organizaciones que dirigen. Aprovechando la experiencia adquirida
en mas de veinte anos de ministerio pastoral, Lawrenz escribe para
los cristianos que tienen algun tipo de liderazgo, cualquiera que
este sea, aunque se centra de una manera especial en los lideres
mas jovenes. Este libro nos facilita un nuevo punto de partida para
el liderazgo cristiano del siglo veintiuno. En el se incluyen las
claves para llegar a logros y capacidades que son necesarios para
un liderazgo eficaz, entre ellos los siguientes: uedificar
integridad en su persona y sus relaciones uaprovechar las
oportunidades uexplorar nuevos horizontes uresolver las crisis
urecibir poder uaceptar la autoridad ufomentar la verdad ucontrolar
las expectativas uenfrentarse a las criticas"
