The book as a whole was very well written and Miller was a fairly easy read. Each chapter gives a play-by-play view of what every pastor/ leader will eventually come across sometime within either ministry or profession. There was only one section, rather one statement that Miller made that I wholeheartedly disagree with. The story is of David’s anointing as king by the prophet, Samuel. In chapter 2, Fostering an Honest Servant Image, he states on pages seven and eight, “Samuel saw such charisma in a shepherd and poured the horn of oil on the boy’s head.” I disagree with this statement because it clearly bends Scripture to suit his example and point. Samuel saw worldly attributes in Eliab based on society’s standards; appearance and physique. God told Samuel in verse 7, “for God sees not as man sees, for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” Samuel didn’t see charisma, he saw a kid who was easy on the eyes and was the last of 8 boys and by a process of elimination, anointed God’s chosen king. Nice try, but that dog don’t hunt. Lastly, my opinion of this book is a positive one. I enjoyed the stories and examples Miller shared based on his own ministerial experiences, which allowed the biblical principles to flow smoothly. The book is incredibly applicable to any potential leader and/ or minister, and I would certainly recommend it to my peers. ( ) ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
God blessed King David as a leader only after he submitted himself to God's strength. Miller shows how following David's example is the first requirement for leadership under God. No library descriptions found. |
