This leadership book is distinctive: it lifts up the magnificent leadership skills exhibited by Jesus throughout his ministry as found in the narratives of the New Testament. It is recommended for anyone currently serving or desiring to serve in a leadership role, whether in a church setting or in the world of business. This book is both practical and dynamic, demonstrating to the reader the many ways that Jesus spoke and acted in love but also in strength to create his team, to work alongside them, to deal with enemies, to change ways of thinking, and to prepare his people to go out and work toward the kingdom. Every lesson provided here is both do-able and practical. Every lesson will work for people of faith and for others who may want to know more about Jesus.

Reviews for Leadership Lessons from Jesus: Guidance We Have Missed from His Actions and Words

""This book will make you think differently about leadership and about Jesus. The pages are teeming with wisdom, scholarship, and humor, but above all, the insights McFarlane offers are applicable. For those who are building teams, speaking to issues, and leading organizations--either religious or secular--Leadership Lessons offers thoughtful perspectives and practical steps for staying authentic, acting effectively, and finding surprising inspiration from an ancient, and still so relevant, source."" --Martha Tatarnic, author of Why Gather? The Hope and Promise of the Church
