Leading God's people : ethics for the practice of ministry

Notes: "The moral transformation of the leader-follower relationship is the centrepiece of this book." "Any minister who professes to be a moral leader will be disturbed but also encouraged by this book. This paradox is summed up in the final chapter. Here the author casts the vocation of ministry as living on the edge of what the world regards as the centre of power and value, while at the same time living at the center of the heart of God wherein lies the virtues of love, faith, and hope. Without these, life has no purpose and restless hearts remain forever restless".
