Out in Front: a Challenging Look at Successfully Leading the Local Church Kirk Gilchrist 1.º edición

There are few more demanding jobs in the world than leading a local Christian church. From the spiritual pressures of preaching doctrinally sound messages and casting clear vision for a well-discipled congregation, to the social strains of battling conflicting opinions and trying to appease influential minorities, few people carry more weight than pastors. In his new book, Out In Front, Pastor Kirk Gilchrist takes a no-nonsense look at what the Bible defines as successful guidance of the local church, and goes to new lengths to encourage church leaders in their pursuit of God-honoring leadership practices.  Out In Front offers time-tested advice on establishing a healthy atmosphere in the office and cultivating a strict open-air policy that breeds trust and security among staff and volunteers alike. But more than managerial wisdom, the book is unapologetic about confronting frequent statements heard within church circles that, while sounding spiritual, actually run incongruently with Biblical mandates, and ultimately inhibit growth within the church.  Be empowered to lead boldly while living kindly. Cast a true kingdom vision that outlasts your lifetime. And dare to confront the religious snares of the enemy that have robbed many churches from being influential.  Learn to lead Out In Front.
