Inhaltsangabe

Leadership books and seminars notwithstanding, many pastors remain unclear on how to effectively lead their congregations. Some even believe that preaching needs to take a backseat to leadership. Dismissing such comparisons as artificial, pastor and professor Michael Quicke notes how the Scriptures themselves reveal transformational leadership through proclamation by preachers. God's preachers, Quicke asserts, are inevitably his leaders. Powerful preaching and disciple-making leadership go hand in hand in the Bible, as well as in the contemporary church. Both are inspired by God's energy. The intentional pastor will be renewed to discern that biblical preaching is central to the events of church life and mission.

A Leadership Model That Can PreachMany in ministry see preaching and church leadership as separate responsibilities. "Most writing on Christian leadership omits preaching, and most books on preaching leave out leadership," observes Michael Quicke. But effective Christian ministry requires preachers to rediscover leadership through preaching. By adapting a workable and realistic leadership model, Quicke shows how preaching is the main vehicle for leading congregational change."If you feel your preaching responsibilities get in the way of your leadership, prepare to be challenged. If you feel your leadership responsibilities get in the way of your preaching, prepare to be challenged. 360-Degree Leadership argues persuasively that leadership and preaching are two sides of the same gold coin."--Craig Brian Larson, editor, PreachingToday.com"There is a strong link between preaching and leadership, and Michael Quicke addresses that issue with great insight. As an experienced pastor as well as a talented teacher and writer, Quicke understands leadership well and helps us to understand it better. This is an excellent and helpful book."--Michael Duduit, editor, Preaching magazine"This is a rare book. Michael Quicke is right. Too much thinking about leadership in the church merely apes secular thinking. Divine dynamics and divine strategy are left out of account. Michael not only challenges our secularism but shows a way forward. Principle, passion, and practice are beautifully blended here. It should restore confidence in the pulpit and help many a pastor to perceive ministry in a more integrated way."--Derek Tidball, principal, London School of Theology"I've been waiting for this book. With warmth and wisdom, Quicke shows us how to bring preaching and leadership together."--Kevin Miller, vice president, Christianity Today InternationalMichael J. Quicke is Charles W. Koller Professor of Preaching and Communication at Northern Seminary and preaches and lectures worldwide. He is the author of 360-Degree Preaching.
