CHRISTIAN LEADERSHIP: For Building the Church and Building the nation
revised edition 2010

Graham Houghton

Many books have been written on leadership, but very few from a uniquely Christian perspective. Dr Houghton has been careful to incorporate in this volume the essential ingredients that set Christian leadership apart from other models of leadership, particularly the biblical emphasis on servanthood. His style of simple eloquence, his eagerness to learn and share from the wisdom of others and the evidences of mature reflection upon years of personal experience in ministry all serve to illustrate those elements of cheerful humility and resourceful dedication that characterize the biblical style of leadership Houghton envisions for this generation of Christians.
