Whether you are leading a ministry, an organization, or a family, God has given you a special mission. To fulfill that God-given purpose, secular leadership principles won’t be enough: you need to know the biblical principles of leadership.
In As I Follow Christ, some of the most notable leaders in the Seventh-day Adventist Church share what they’ve learned about effective leadership. Drawing from the Bible, the writings of Ellen G. White, proven practices, and personal experience, each writer reveals a unique perspective on what it looks like to be a leader who follows God.
A glimpse of the leadership principles shared in As I Follow Christ:
- “If you are a leader, lead! Don't drive people! Don't dictate! Make sure that you are with the people and that they are with you.” —Jim Gilley President and CEO, Three Angels Broadcasting Network
- “Maybe you are saying, ‘Don’t look at me, Lord!’ But if you are a Christian, you are a leader.” —Cindy Tutsch Associate Director, White Estate
- “Humility is necessary because success in leadership can be its greatest danger!” —Prudence LaBeach Pollard Assistant Vice President for Faculty Development, Leadership, and Research, Oakwood University
- “Pulling rank and making power plays is not leadership.” —David S. Penner Director, Doctoral Leadership Program School of Public Health, Loma Linda University
