Description
Book SynopsisThe world needs godly, trained leaders just as much as the church does. Taking the examples of Jesus and Paul, Reeder presents a model of multiplication that intentionally and continuously raises up other leaders. With its three–pronged approach to leadership development, this book guides readers through a time–tested paradigm that works in real life and is fully grounded in Scripture. The principles, personal illustrations, and practical ideas it contains will effectively equip leaders and the church for their task of transforming first the body of Christ and then our culture.
Trade ReviewReeder is disturbed that churches have entrusted the world with defining what it means to be a leader. He tries to take that job back—and with it, he gives us help in knowing how we can develop and deploy those leaders in the church and beyond.

Reeder’s urgent call to develop Biblical leaders who are courageous, compassionate, and selfless is a battle cry to rescue our nation, our culture, and our churches from the suffocation of self–gratification.
-- Bryan Chapell (Pastor, Grace Presbyterian Church, Peoria, Illinois )
Drawing on a deep understanding of Scripture, a lifetime of ministry in the church, and a practical knowledge of military history, Reeder lays out clear Biblical principles for success in spiritual leadership.
