Reading Suggestions for Preaching, Leadership and Personal Growth

I love hearing from pastors who take a proactive approach to their learning and personal growth. One of my Renegade Pastors, Gary Black from Clayton Christian Church in Indiana, recently asked me a question that I thought might be helpful to all of us…

Gary asked: “I’m about to go on a personal retreat, what books would you recommend for my preaching, personal and leadership growth?”

Here was my list of suggested books for his retreat:

Ken Blanchard – Leading at a Higher Level

Oswald Sanders – Spiritual LeadershipSpiritual Discipleship; Spiritual Maturity – Click the name for any of these 3 books.

Bert Decker – You’ve Got to Be Believed to Be Heard

Wayne Cordeiro – Divine Mentors

Hope this help,

Nelson
