  An engaging look at reality-based Christian leadership, The Four Faces of a Leader has the potential to utterly transform leaders and those they lead—not with bells and whistles, but with a soft whisper of truth about servant leadership. By emphasizing the leadership priorities Jesus demonstrated in the gospels, Rhoden engages the reader with practical applications for all pastors, whether they serve 3,000 or 200 members. Like a personal mentor sharing valuable life lessons, this book challenges, inspires, informs, and encourages. Based on four leadership “faces” of shepherd, servant, steward, and seer, this is a solid roadmap of practical insights for leaders of every generation who want to be the change the world is looking for.

  How can pastors become resilient in a rapidly changing world? In the wake of crises that have exposed and accelerated massive cultural shifts, we see more clearly the seismic shifts of post-Christendom, the surging storms of a new paganism and pluralism, and the scattered debris of the cultural aftermath. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on new research from the Barna Group, scripture, and church history, Glenn Packiam addresses some of the most pressing questions for today's leaders, including what is a pastor's calling and vocation?; how do church leaders regain credibility in a disillusioned world?; how do church leaders cultivate a deeper life with God?; how do pastors develop meaningful relationships?; why does the church gather in worship? Does it still matter if we do?; how can we face the challenges to unity presented by nationalism and racism? what is the church's mission in the world?; and how do we welcome the presence and power of God in our churches? 
   
   
   
  With enlightening data, and insights from other ministry leaders, this book is the perfect resource for church leaders who want to cultivate resilience in their ministry today. 
   
   
   
  Bonus material: This audiobook includes figures in printable PDF format.

  When I Consider Your Heavens -...

  In this thought-provoking book, Antony Latham shows how science and philosophy provide evidence for the existence of God. There was a beginning of the universe, which requires an explanation beyond itself. The exquisite fine-tuning of the physical laws necessary for life has all the hallmarks of design. Paleontology and biology show unmistakable signs of an intelligence behind life. Consciousness and free-will, inexplicable in purely physical terms, point to something beyond the material. The philosophy of beauty and morality leads us to an author of both. He argues that the universe is ‘open’—not simply the interaction of matter and energy, but a realm where miracles can happen. The evidence for the greatest miracle in history, the resurrection of Jesus, is carefully presented. 
  About the Author: 
  Antony Latham is a retired family doctor with nine years of experience working in hospitals in East Africa. He has authored books on Darwinism and the philosophy of mind, and holds a degree in Medical Law and Bioethics. Currently, he chairs the Scottish Council on Human Bioethics. He and his wife have four children and three grandchildren. They live in the Western Isles of Scotland, where he enjoys sailing and mountaineering.

  Fasting is a beautiful journey with the Lord that has blessed many people. Our Lord calls us into a life-giving relationship with Him, and through fasting we are able to lay aside the things that keep us from an intimate relationship with the Lord.  Daniel provides an example of consecration-the setting apart of oneself--that will empower you to experience greater freedom.  Daniel's obedience, courage, and discipline are a picture of a heart yielded to God and a person who wants to express their love of God through action. A submitted heart leads to a submitted life.  We serve a God of creativity and wonder. Any answer you are seeking, He has it. Any solution you need, He has already set up. Any wound you have, He has the salve, and through your submission to Him during the Daniel Fast you will experience freedom and victory in every area of your life.  This book will be a tool you can use to guide you in the practice of fasting and the Daniel Fast, while leading you to greater love for, and intimacy with, the Lord. Through the Daniel Fast, your desire for Him will increase and be greater than any other desire you have for anything or anyone else. As you embark on your journey with the Daniel Fast, you will never be the same!
