THE FAMILY LIFE OF A CHRISTIAN LEADER
By
Ajith Fernando
Crossway. 223 pages. £14.40
ISBN 978 1 433 552 908

Christian leaders are called to live lives above reproach and manage their own families well as they shepherd the church they have been called to. It is a daunting but essential task.

Increasingly people in our church families have experienced broken relationships and poor role models, and they look closely at their leaders to be examples of a gospel centred family life. This gaze puts leaders under particular scrutiny, which can be hard to bear, particularly for the children.
