Synopsis"Godliness," Jonathan Edwards wrote, "is more easily feigned in words than in actions." We experience this with our business and political leaders all the time: the talk sounds good, but the walk tells a darker truth. We talk, too, about how it should be different when it comes to church leadership. But still, we so often resort to exchanges of words and analysis of answers when we're looking for people to fill church offices. And yet what we long for in our spiritual leaders is exactly what we also long for in our own spiritual lives: an all-out intimacy with God that shows up in our manner of living. This shared longing can be answered by an honest encounter with spiritual practices.The practices described in this book -- humility, confession & forgiveness, Scripture, prayer, worship, sacraments, obedience, reconciliation and sharing the gospel -- are not to be used as a checklist of leadership behavior. They are, instead, invitations to move below the surface of our lives and into the very depth of Christ's heart.
