With Father’s Day around the corner, we’re taking the time to appreciate the men in our lives.
Honor your father by giving him one of these books. Challenge yourself to become a better leader adding these to your reading list.
It’s time for a change! It’s time to hear the voice of Jesus asking, “Do you want to get well?” And it’s time to answer Him with your obedience. Your destiny, future, and family are not controlled by “if only”; they rest in the hands of the one who loves you, saves you, redeems you and heals you. Let go of your excuses, move beyond your conditional living and break your cycle of dependency. It’s time to stand!
Have you convinced yourself the abundant life Jesus came to bring is out of reach? Have you developed an “if only” mentality, waiting for something or someone to turn things around? While you become more and more dependent on your excuses, you watch others get what you want to have, go where you want to go and experience what you long to feel. It seems it’s never your turn to experience the joy that comes from attaining all God has for you.
In You Are Next, Rev. Samuel Rodriguez uses the story of Jesus healing the paralytic to powerfully illustrate that your “tendency for dependency” could be standing in the way of your miracle. He challenges you to do what’s necessary to receive it and shows you how to:
- Let go of old labels you’ve allowed to define you.
- Move beyond barriers that limit you.
- Stop seeing yourself as a victim and start seeing your circumstances as subject to the authority and power of Jesus Christ.
- Let go of the qualifications you think are tacked on to Jesus’ command to get up and walk.
It’s time to step out in faith! You are next!
When you honor others, you honor God.
Trying harder doesn’t always improve relationships or bring promotion. But choosing to live with honor will strengthen relationships, bring elevation, build bridges and deepen our worship of and intimacy with God.
The blessing of honor is seen throughout Scripture, as those who remained honorable flourished, and those who did not suffered from tragedies, wars and hardships. This book explains that when we honor family members, authority figures, the overlooked, colleagues, subordinates and the like simply because they are God’s creation, we honor God. And honoring God is an act of worship that leads to a deeper intimacy with Him.
Though some self-improvement and leadership books address the importance of respect, few explain the life-changing power of honor. Through biblical examples and personal stories, this book will help readers grow closer in their relationship with Jesus and truly appreciate the people around them as they learn to create a culture of honor in their lives, families and ministries.
King David was a complicated, conflicted man of flesh. But too often he is viewed as an Americanized shepherd boy on a Sunday school felt board or a New Testament saint alongside the Virgin Mary. Not only does this neglect one of the Bible’s most complex stories of sin and redemption; it also bypasses the gritty life lessons inherent in the amazing true story of David.
Mark Rutland shreds the felt-board character, breaks down the sculpted marble statue and unearths the real David of the Bible. Both noble and wretched, neither a saint nor a monster, at times victorious and other times a failure, David was through it all, a man after God’s own heart.
This book will help you see that love and leadership are not mutually exclusive and learn that without love, you cannot be an effective leader.
The one action verb most frequently missing from various manifestos on leadership is love. In Love Leads Dr. Steve Greene shares real-life examples, principles and exhortations of the love of a leader.
You will discover what it looks like to lead with love—is there a process of love? is tough love really love?—and you will view leadership as it’s never been seen before as Dr. Greene dispels the myths and misconceptions many have come to accept about leadership.
The real-life principles in this book are fully supported throughout by the actions of God who “so loved that He gave,” leading you to see with new insight that the true essence of leadership is love.
