About this listen
Over one million copies sold
What every church will always need
The need for talented, vigorous leaders in the church cannot be overemphasized. Such times demand active service of men and women who are guided by and devoted to Jesus Christ.
With more than one million copies sold, Spiritual Leadership stands as a proven classic for developing such leadership. J. Oswald Sanders, a Christian leader for nearly 70 years and author of more than 40 books, presents the key principles of leadership in both the temporal and spiritual realms. He illustrates his points with examples from Scripture and biographies of eminent men of God, such as Moses, Nehemiah, the apostle Paul, David Livingstone, Charles Spurgeon, and others.
Featured topics include:
- The cost of leadership
- The responsibility of leadership
- Tests of leadership
- The qualities and criteria of leadership
- The art of reproducing leaders
- The one indispensable requirement of leadership
Sanders holds that even natural leadership qualities are God-given, and their true effectiveness can only be reached when they are used to the glory of God. Let this classic be your guide for leadership, and watch how God works through you to do great things for His glory.

They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily...BUT WHO DO YOU KNOW WHO LIVES LIKE THAT? DO YOU?

In this newly revised and updated edition, best-selling author John Bevere reemphasizes for a new generation the protective boundaries God provides through authority figures. John reveals how the enemy tricks us into believing our true destinies can be found away from divine leadership by distorting our ability to recognize God's inherent authority and his delegated authority. By teaching us how to properly relate to leadership, John shows why living under authority provides a place where there is provision, protection, and hope for the future.

Story
In the Bible, God showed us what leadership looks like in his kingdom, and at first, a lot of it seems upside down. The first shall be last. The master shall be the servant. But how can we apply these counterintuitive truths in our own world today? The first step, it turns out, is to become a good follower - a disciple of Christ who always lets him take the lead. Rather than focusing on the nuts and bolts of management, Lead Like Christ looks closely at how leaders can better imitate the greatest leader of all.

Story
In an age where pleasing people, puffing up your ego and building your résumé are seen as the methods to "make it", the Apostle Paul calls us to find true rest in blessed self forgetfulness. In this short and punchy book, best selling author Timothy Keller, shows that gospel humility means we can stop connecting every experience, every conversation with ourselves and can thus be free from self condemnation. A truly gospel humble person is not a self-hating person or a self-loving person, but a self-forgetful person.

Good Book!
J. Oswald Sanders’ Spiritual Leadership: Principles of Excellence for Every Believer is a timeless guide that explores the biblical foundations of true leadership, emphasizing character, humility, and dependence on God rather than worldly ambition. Sanders argues that spiritual leadership is not about status or authority but about servanthood, self-discipline, and a willingness to sacrifice for others. Drawing from Scripture and the lives of great Christian leaders, he outlines essential qualities such as vision, wisdom, and integrity while warning against the dangers of pride and complacency. The book challenges believers at all levels to pursue excellence in leadership by cultivating a deep spiritual life, prioritizing prayer, and seeking God’s guidance in every decision. Through practical insights and spiritual wisdom, Sanders provides a roadmap for anyone who desires to lead with Christlike character, whether in the church, workplace, or home.

Excellent insights
“Spiritual Leadership” offers excellent insights not only into what is involved in becoming a leader in Christian circles, but also what is possible in being a Christian. Anyone considering Christian service, whether organized or just serving others, should listen to or read this book several times, at regular intervals.
