Winner of the ECPA Book of the Year Award for Ministry Resources
The church is experiencing a leadership crisis. What can we do to prevent pastors from leaving the ministry?
For every celebrity pastor exiting the ministry in the spotlight, there are many more lesser-known pastors leaving in the shadows. Pastor and best-selling author Paul David Tripp argues that lurking behind every pastoral failure is the lack of a strong leadership community. Tripp draws on his decades of ministry experience to give churches twelve gospel principles necessary to combat this leadership crisis. Each of these principles, built upon characteristics such as humility, dependency, and accountability, will enable new and experienced leaders alike to focus their attention on the ultimate leadership model: the gospel.
Paul David Tripp (DMin, Westminster Theological Seminary) is a pastor, an award-winning author, and an international conference speaker. He has written numerous books, including Lead; Parenting; and the bestselling devotional New Morning Mercies. His not-for-profit ministry exists to connect the transforming power of Jesus Christ to everyday life. Tripp lives in Philadelphia with his wife, Luella, and they have four grown children.
Preface
Introduction: Crisis
Achievement
Principle 1: A ministry community whose time is controlled by doing the business of the church tends to be spiritually unhealthy.
Gospel
Principle 2: If your leaders are going to be tools of God’s grace, they need to be committed to nurture that grace in one another’s lives.
Limits
Principle 3: Recognizing God-ordained limits of gift, time, energy and maturity is essential to leading a ministry community well.
Balance
Principle 4: Teaching your leaders to recognize and balance the various callings in their life is a vital contribution to their success.
Character
Principle 5: A spiritually healthy leadership community acknowledges that character is more important than structure or strategies.
War
Principle 6: It is essential to understand that leadership in any gospel ministry is spiritual warfare.
Servants
Principle 7: Being called to leadership in the church is a call to a life of willing sacrifice and service.
Candor
Principle 8: A spiritually healthy leadership community is characterized by the humility of approachability and the courage of loving honesty.
Identity
Principle 9: Where your leaders look for identity will always determine how they lead.
Restoration
Principle 10: If a leadership community is formed by the gospel it will always be committed to a lifestyle of fresh starts and new beginnings.
Longevity
Principle 11: For church leaders, ministry longevity is always the result of gospel community.
Presence
Principle 12: You will only handle the inevitable weakness, failure, and sin of your leaders when you view them through the lens of the presence, power, promises, and grace of Jesus.
