Biblical Leadership: Ken Collier and Matt Williams co-authored this small paperback book. Each of the authors have written specific chapters of the book as they lay the ground work for the Biblical teaching of servant leadership. There is much time given in comparison to Jesus Christ’s earthly ministry and the modern day believer’s opportunities for leadership today. Many cross references are quoted within the book for the reader’s convenience and each chapter ends with personal application questions. The reader ends the book having been reminded of many vital Biblical truths needing to be applied to their own Biblical leadership.

This easily enables the use of “New Morning Mercies” from year to year. This will be a devotional you want to come back to over and over again!
