Title: Courageous Leadership by Bill Hybels ISBN: 0-310-24823-X Publisher: Zondervan Pub. Date: 01 August, 2002 Format: Hardcover Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $19.99 |

Summary: Falls short
Comment: The expectation from a Pastor of a church over 15k would be a book on dealing with the myriad of issues in such an environment.
This is a soft book, few challenging thoughts/ideas. IF you've read Swindoll, Blanchard, Hayford, Damazio, Maxwell and a plethora of other authors then you'll think you are in familiar territory. Frank Houston, Brian Houston, Kevin Conner and Ivan Herald will challenge you with every word, thought and idea.
Their books are not widely available sadly.

Summary: A Must Read for all Church Leaders!
Comment: This book appears to be written to provide direction to church leaders. Although I do not play a role of a pastor or leader within my own church, I learned soooo much from this book! It helps you identify how different personalities build their own spirituality. It gave me great insight to some of my brothers and sisters in the church and why they respond differently to new ideas. Bill also addresses several areas that are not often taught in the church but need to be and are completely scriptural. I found the book to be very inspiring and motivating and a must read for all church leaders!!

Summary: A must read for Christian leaders
Comment: This is one of the top five books on leadership in my library (another being "The Purpose Driven Church"). The chapter on spiritual pathways alone is worth the price of the book. It may be a little dicey for status-quo types or people in highly "traditional" churches, but even there it can be useful if executed carefully.
The premise of his works are if you have the gift of leadership why not hone your gift with effective leadership practices? Some of these are spelled out in the book while he encourages you to seek out good leadership books (even secular) to learn the others. He doesn't claim that all of what he gives applies to all churches, but most are general principles and should apply.
And speaking of the chapter on spiritual pathways, he also put the summation of that chapter up as a web page that is quite helpful. Just do a search for "Hybels" and "spiritual pathways". There are a few "spiritualized" versions out there so make sure you read his. Enjoy.
