The Leadership of Jesus

A spiritual, incarnational and countercultural model. By Peter McGuigan.

The Leadership of Jesus

‘Spiritual leadership is a lifestyle in which secular ways of leadership often apply in reverse. We lead in the strength and wisdom of the Spirit, not our own. We lead from a position of humility, not ego. We lead in a disposition of grace, not power. As well as spiritual and incarnational, our leadership is countercultural.’

Taking the leadership of Jesus as a model, Peter McGuigan explores what incarnational and countercultural leadership should look like within The Salvation Army and the wider Church. Each chapter includes a prayer and questions to stimulate reflective practice, making this a useful companion for anyone with leadership responsibilities in the Church.
