By exploring how secular leadership goes awry in basing itself upon limited human knowledge, Boyd O. Gray, a retired minister with thirty years of experience, shows how such leadership ends in failure rather than in God's peace and prosperity. Taken together, these guides to the pitfalls and possibilities a leader faces reveal how to imitate Joshua's example by pursuing exemplary and faithful paths of leadership.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eArranged as a passage-by-passage reflection on the biblical text, \u003ci\u003eJoshua Called to Lead\u003c\/i\u003e draws from several translations, choosing in each instance the one illuminating the leadership-oriented message the passage contains. The commentary also connects the Old Testament account and the Christian life: \"Joshua may have doubted God's intent at first, but He still went before Him in humility and repentance. In repentance, God gave him the answer he was looking for. The child of God's can always find the will and purpose of God through repentance and prayer.\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eJoshua Called to Lead: Pursuing Exemplary Leadership\u003c\/i\u003e speaks to all who desire to learn about the biblical figure of Joshua, who seek deeper understandings of his faithful leadership, or who crave a model for shaping one's own efforts to lead. If you belong to any of those groups, then \u003ci\u003eJoshua Called\u003c\/i\u003e to Lead will guide your own journey to appreciate and to pursue exemplary and faithful leadership.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e iUniverse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/07\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781491771365\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 268\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.76lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.61d","brand":"Boyd O.
