CHAPTER 9 Praying for Others 

I suppose it is possible to be a gifted leader, generally speaking, without a vital prayer life. But in the life of the Christian leader, the role of prayer cannot be overestimated. It is not possible to be a faithful Christian, much less a Christian leader, without prayer.

The Old Testament, of course, is full of examples of fervent and effectual prayer, especially voiced by chosen leaders, whether...

CHAPTER 8 Persevering in the Will of God 

After the great and glorious years of David and Solomon, after the divided kingdom period, after the two exiles of the Northern and Southern Kingdoms due to sin and disloyalty, after the return of many of God’s people to Jerusalem and the surrounding country—when Israel was still under foreign control—something monumental happened in Sushan, Persia.

CHAPTER 7 Pursuing Right Relationships 

It is the purpose of God to bring us into right relationship with Himself, and to form a community of believers who are in right relationship with one another.

CHAPTER 6 Contending for the Faith 

Jude, who introduces himself in his letter as “Jude, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James” (v. 1), was writing to Christians, calling them to “contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints” (v. 3). Jude clearly stated that although he wanted to write about “our common salvation” (v. 3), he gave his attention—out of...

CHAPTER 5 Guarding the Heart 

At the heart of the matter of faithfulness is the heart of God’s servant. And one of the primary ways the heart of God’s servant is revealed is by how the heart of God’s servant responds to God’s Word.

We need to take a serious look at this issue, since it is critical for Christian leaders and people of influence to have hearts “given” to the Lord.

One of the primary ways to...
