Based on his extensive experience as coach and mentor to many
thousands of Christian leaders across a broad spectrum of ministry
settings, Reggie Mc Neal helps spiritual leaders understand that
they will self-select into or out of greatness. In this important
book, Mc Neal shows how great spiritual leaders are committed
consciously and intentionally to seven spiritual disciplines,
habits of heart and mind that shape both their character and
competence:
The discipline of self-awareness–the single most
important body of information a leader possesses
The discipline of self-management–handling
difficult emotions, expectations, temptations, mental vibrancy, and
physical well-being
The discipline of self-development–a life-long
commitment to learning and growing and building on one’s
strengths
The discipline of mission–enjoying the permissions
of maintaining the sense of God’s purpose for your life and
leadership
The discipline of decision-making–knowing the
elements of good decisions and learning from failure
The discipline of belonging–the determination to
nurture relationships and to live in community with others,
including family, followers, mentors, and friends
The discipline of aloneness–the intentional
practice of soul-making solitude and contemplation
