Leading With Ministry Intelligence

Discover the vital link between leadership and Ministry Intelligence. The author labels Ministry Intelligence as the convergence of the leader’s practice of the classic spiritual disciplines, perception of the shifts in leadership occurring in a changed culture created by 9/11, and a passion to do ministry. The author does not provide a cookie-cutter approach but a coaching process so each leader may define his or her own Ministry Intelligence. “Leading with Ministry Intelligence is a must read for anyone attempting to do ministry and be a minister in the shifting sands of the Third Millennium. With warmth, insight, and pastoral sensitivity, Dr. Winders articulates clearly and succinctly the philosophy and practical aspects of what it takes to be a ministry leader today.” -Craig A.
