How to Survive and Thrive as a Church Leader by Nick Cuthbert

How to Survive and Thrive as a Church Leader by Nick Cuthbert

In the Christian church, particularly in the West, we face a crisis of leadership. Recent statistics reveal that large numbers of leaders simply want to give up. The purpose of this book is to underline survival principles. How to Survive (and Thrive) As a Church Leader is honest, often funny, and written with complete integrity by someone familiar with tough times.

In my 24 years as a pastor, I found many books that talked about the techniques of ministry, but too few that focused on the deeper issues of sustainability-of character, spiritual integrity, discouragement, work-family balance, conflict, resilience, and so on. Recently I came across this beautiful book by Nick Cuthbert, and I thought, 'This is what I needed but could never find.&' Sagely advice, accessible and practical, and well-written too.
