The Leadership Paradox

Description

Loren Cunningham’s dream began with a vision–waves of young people moving out across the continents announcing the Good News of Jesus Christ. Decades later, Loren’s vision has grown into an interdenominational movement of Christians from around the world who are dedicated to presenting the gospel to this generation. Loren speaks and teaches internationally, and his missionary travels have taken him to every nation on earth. What is the key to effective leadership? The ability to organize and take charge? The ability to preach and teach? A charismatic personality? This refreshingly candid book draws us to the Master’s side, where we discover surprising insights that will challenge our leadership stereotypes. Study guide included.

Popular Christian apologist Hank Hanegraaff offers a detailed defense of the resurrection, the singularly most important event in history and the foundation upon which Christianity is built.
Today, fear affects even the strongest of us. Sometimes it’s immediate, caused by a sense of imminent danger—the kind we felt after terrorists destroyed the magnificent World Trade Center, tore a giant wound in the Pentagon and killed thousands of people. But sometimes fear becomes a normal way of life. In his best-selling memoir October Sky (aka Rocket Boys), Hickam introduced us to the rugged town of his youth, Coalwood, West Virginia, and the people who took on the hazardous and often brutal enterprise of coal mining. To survive and prosper, these people relied on an approach to living that would get them through hard times with an almost unnatural resilience. Over a lifetime, they learned to take on these attitudes: We are proud of who we are. We stand up for what we believe. We keep our families together. We trust in God but rely on ourselves. These attitudes are summed up in the Coalwood Assumption: WE ARE NOT AFRAID. Through poignant memories of his youth, best selling author Homer Hickam helps lead you beyond fear to find the courage and strength to live more happily and look toward to future with optimism.
