Biblical Leadership takes the best of evangelical scholarship to make the leadership lessons of Scripture tangible for today's readers. All contributors are biblical scholars who not only think seriously about the texts covered in their individual chapters, but have committed their lives to teaching and living the truths therein.

This volume walks through the sections of the Bible, gleaning insights from each biblical writer. Every chapter analyzes the original setting of the writing, extrapolates the leadership principles in the text, and provides advice on applying that theology of leadership. Presented in everyday language understandable to both professionals and practitioners, these lessons will equip current and upcoming leaders to make a Christlike impact.
Industry Reviews
"Leadership is crucial to the well-being of any organization, not least that of the Christian community--whether that be of a local congregational, the wider denominational level, or of para-church missional and welfare/development agencies. Biblical Leadership: Theology for the Everyday Leader, edited by Benjamin K. Forrest and Chet Roden, constitutes a unique contribution to the literature dealing with Christian leadership, especially because of the broad biblical approach adopted, the caliber of the scholars enlisted for the project, and the essays each has contributed. Most parts of the Bible are explored, noting their particular historical contexts, and highlighting the various aspects of leadership they reflect and/or mandate. It's good to see a crossover from academic to practical theology in these essays, something that will make them attractive for many readers. This text makes an important contribution to the study of Christian leadership, and one that deserves a wide readership."--Colin G. Kruse, Senior Lecturer of New Testament, Melbourne School of Theology (8/3/2017 12:00:00 AM)
"The saying is true: "Everything rises and falls on leadership." This is true for government, businesses, organizations, and it's true for churches. Never has there been more of a need for godly and bold leadership in our pulpits than today. This is why I'm grateful for this new work Biblical Leadership: Theology for the Everyday Leader. While many people are writing on the subject of leadership, very few are offering principles and examples of leadership from a biblical point of view. This book strikes a great balance between helping readers understand the theological foundations of biblical leadership as well as giving practical wisdom and insight for leading in today's culture. Every pastor and teacher will benefit from having this resource."--Jack Graham, Pastor, Prestonwood Baptist Church (8/3/2017 12:00:00 AM)
