The responsibility of leaders is to rally believers and mobiliz their spiritual gifts in order to help people who are far from God become fully devoted followers of Christ. Life transformation and the eternal destinies of real people depend on the redemptive message entrusted to the local church. Too much is at stake for leaders not to maximize their spiritual gift of leadership, insists Hybels. In this book, he unpacks the tools, tasks, and challenges of the calling. It discusses how to discover the power of vision and turn it into action. It will help readers gain frontline insights for developing a kingdom dream team, discover leadership styles, develop other leaders, make decisions, walk with God, embrace change, stay the course, and more.
