Spiritual Leadership: Moving People on to God's Agenda - Revised and Expanded
Digital Logos Edition
Overview
Next to their Experiencing God classic, Spiritual Leadership is one of Henry and Richard Blackaby’s most highly regarded and best-selling books to date, encouraging business and church leaders alike to follow God’s biblical design for success. In fact, the Barna Group reports that pastors list it among today’s most influential writings on the topic of how God develops, guides, and empowers spiritual leaders.
In this new trade paper edition of Spiritual Leadership, the Blackabys update their notes on the key points regarding a leader’s challenges, character qualities, influence, decision making techniques, and more, all the while focusing on how leaders discover and promote God’s vision for their organization and move people on to His agenda. There are also new chapters on leading change and leading teams.

“Spiritual Leadership is moving people on to God’s agenda.” (Page 36) |
“Courage is not an absence of fear. Courage is being frightened and yet doing the right thing anyway.” (Page 178)
“Influence is fundamental to a leader’s role. It is not enough to know where people should go; leaders must have the capacity to move them to that place.” (Page 147)
“Spiritual leaders influence all people, not just God’s people.” (Page 39)
“Modern history is once again calling upon men and women to rise up and fulfill their God-given destiny to impact their world. True spiritual leaders do not wring their hands and wistfully recount the better times of days gone by. Genuine leaders understand they have but one life to live and so they expend it with purpose and passion. God placed you on the earth at this particular crossroad in history. You live in a time of great challenges but enormous opportunity. May you live, and lead, well.” (Page 28)
