How to lead a church

This book is the first of a projected series of books in A People on Purpose series. In ten volumes the themes of how God gathers, governs and grows the church will be explored. As the series editor Andrew Roycroft puts it: “this [is an] original series of volumes with the health of the local church at its core.”

“Healthy Christians make for healthy churches, and healthy churches make for healthy Christians. Likewise, healthy churches are led by healthy leaders who have been shaped by healthy resources.”

This volume by Stephen Kneale, who you may know from his Building Jerusalem blog, deals thoroughly with the topic of healthy leadership in 24 chapters.
