More than ever, people are talking about leadership - and much of the talk advances the same old misconceptions. Leadership does not come from a job title, it is not a matter of personality or charisma, and it is not the same thing as iron-fisted authority.

True leadership, the kind that refuses to bend to a shifting and fickle world, comes from a far deeper source. John MacArthur builds the case from the writings and the life of the apostle Paul, and the result is a book on leadership that spends most of its time in Scripture rather than in management literature.
