Important Insights in leadership
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
"A Passion For Faithfulness" by J. I. Packer is not an exegetical study of the book of Nehemiah. It is not a commentary either. What Packer discusses are a series of principles of leadership and church-building that Nehemiah can provide for the modern reader. Dr Packer provides for us many years of study and application of the principles that will change a person's approach to ministry. He discusses theology of the Church, Type and Typology, Background to Nehemiah, Prayer, Work, Battling Enemies, Management, Leadership, Call into Ministry, Covenant, Vision Casting and Obedience. All of this is done by Packer with wisdom and experinence couched in real life experiences he has been a part of. I highly recommend this book as a stand-alone study for the average Christian or in suppliment with Williamson, Fensham, and Kidner for the Teacher and Preacher.
