Christ-Centered Leadership

Work, Money & Leadership

“At last! Someone writing about Christian leadership who takes seriously the incarnation of Jesus and the actual life, ministry, and writings of Paul. . . . With the insight of decades of leadership experience and an understanding of contemporary issues, McKenna brings the focus on Christian leadership to a fine point. The essential nature of Christian leadership requires a concerted and sustained discipline to be like Jesus. Nothing else can be authentically called Christian leadership.”

Mere Ecclesiology

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Written from his experience as a minister, a clergy educator, and a missionary, the book covers a broad range of topics that relate to the work of the church. Easy to read and challenging to your preconceptions, the book will profit every pastor and every layperson. This is an excellent overview of the work of the church. Refreshing!”

Plain Truth for Plain People

Preaching & Worship

“For several years, Dr. Brad Estep was my pastor. I heard his sermons week after week, and found myself challenged every time. This book comes from the heart of a pastor, the mind of a scholar, and the wisdom of a teacher. It should be on every pastor’s reading list.”
