In 1 John 3:10 the author writes, By this the children of God and the children of the devil are obvious: anyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor the one who does not love his brother. We have the misconception that to question our salvation is a bad thing, but it's Scriptural. By establishing a solid foundation in this matter, my prayer is that you might be able to take hold of these truths and examine yourself, .to make certain about His calling and choosing you;. (2 Pet. 1:10). In this new light, you can look at your personal experiences at the time of your salvation and evaluate your life against the plumb line of the Scriptures. 1Corinthians 1:26-29, For consider your calling, brethren, that there were not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble; but God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to shame the things that are strong, and the base things of the world and the despised.that no man should boast. This is my qualifications, weak, despised, foolish, yet called. I have no seminary training, no college degree. I lack in the ability to write a book. Yet God has been relentless in pushing me to write this. I have been on the backside of the desert with God studying the Bible extensively for ten years and He has taught me some things.

How can you lead effectively when there isn't a clear path forward?  Real life ministry is complicated--far more complicated than is typically captured in leadership books. There are moving parts and people who require adept, agile, adaptive leadership. Unlike technical challenges with a clear or known solution, adaptive challenges are complex and dynamic, requiring creative leaderships. Adaptive leadership is art, not science. It is an exercise in wisdom, not just knowledge. It requires leaders to ascertain the issues, values, and stakes unique to a given situation, to consider the potential courses of action, and decide which courses are best.  The case study method is a proven and effective tool to help leaders chart their course by learning from complex, real-life situations. Leaders learn to integrate multiple leadership strategies and concepts by reading and reflecting on multiple case studies, helping them clarify their own unique context, values, challenges, opportunities, and potential actions. Like real ministry, case studies are complex. There is not always an easy solution, or even a fast understanding of the real problem(s). The case studies in Uncharted Leadership promote learning at the deepest level: helping leaders move beyond simple answers to deep individual and organizational understanding and transformation.  Uncharted Leadership applies the case study method to ministry leadership. Through a series of relevant, real-life case studies in ministry leadership, Angie Ward brings the classroom to the reader, using thought-provoking questions, commentary, and recommended resources to expand the leader's empathy, understanding, awareness, and skill.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50767559590161,"sku":"GOR014063944","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":50983444087057,"sku":"NIN9780310143031","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52502369468689,"sku":"NLS9780310143031","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0310143039.jpg?v=1750909328"},{"product_id":"student-s-quick-start-guide-to-successful-online-learning-book-angie-ward-9780615824710","title":"The Student's Quick-Start Guide to Successful Online Learning","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51206969491729,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51206971621649,"sku":"NIN9780615824710","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0615824714.jpg?v=1750911717"},{"product_id":"pit-book-angie-ward-9781453825112","title":"Pit","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51671613145361,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51671613374737,"sku":"NIN9781453825112","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1453825118.jpg?v=1750714625"},{"product_id":"beyond-church-and-parachurch-book-angie-ward-9781514009574","title":"Beyond Church and Parachurch","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDiscovering New Dimensions in Faith-Based Community Work\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\"A welcome and needed book addressing the current tensions and opportunities. . . .
