Drawing on the insights of the 18th-century Wesleyan revival and the best of contemporary scholarship, Bishop Kenneth Carder and Dr. Laceye Warner show how leadership rooted in grace forms character, inspires mission, and strengthens the church for faithful service today. This updated edition expands the original with fresh illustrations, models of leadership for congregations and institutions, and renewed attention to the practices that empower leaders in every ministry setting. Christian leadership, the authors remind us, is theological at its core. Flowing from the abundant grace of God in Christ, effective leadership is never merely about technique or strategy, but about embodying God's mission in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBishop Kenneth L.
