 Dancing With God, Leading With His Presence
Church leadership has foilowed several paths in recent years. Scripture has beenn added to industrial leadership principles to produce some interesting, although not altogether enlightening, results.
The authors of this volume use the Bibilcal books of Samuel to show how trusting in God to lead you makes the best church or any kind of leader. Eli didn't do so and died with his daughter naimg a son to show the glory of God had departed Israel. Saul gave up on God and paid the price in insanity and in God replacing him as leader. David's lapse from the presence of God caused him endless family and kingdom problems in his later life.
David was, by and large, a man of God. His dance before God shows this. We also learn people may think us crazy to follow God's lead, but God is always right.
I learned a great deal about putting leadership in God's hands. The other great use for this book will be as a leadership Bible study, either separate from or in conjunction with, the monthly meeting schedule.
