<transcy>The making of a leader (La croissance du leader)</transcy>
The Church faces an urgent need to see a generation of spiritual leaders rise up, leaders who have received the gift of God and who respond to his call. After examining the lives of hundreds of biblical, historical and contemporary leaders, Robert Clinton also recognizes that God uses certain processes to develop leaders.
The author identifies six stages present in the process of developing a leader. By studying these six stages, you will be able to:
• Become aware of what God is already working in you;
• Recognize where you are in this development process;
• Identify potential leaders in your environment ;
• Support the development of future leaders.
This work is intended for all those who exert an influence on a group of people in order to direct them towards God. Whether you are professional or not, God is at work in your life to make you a leader after His heart.
Each chapter ends with a section that will help you implement the principles discussed.
