"You feel it, deep in your bones: God is inviting you to join Him, to participate in His redemptive work in the world. And yet, as a woman leader, you face so many potential obstacles. Lack of clarity over your unique calling. Competing time demands. Changing seasons of life. Challenges such as self-doubt, criticism, and spiritual dryness. With nearly 30 years of ministry experience, Angie Ward knows firsthand the unique challenges that women leaders face as they seek to pursue their calling. In I Am a Leader, Angie explores the concept of "calling" as it applies specifically to women leaders-those women of influence both in Christian ministry and the broader world: What is calling? How do you discover it? And what does it look like to live out that calling practically amid a multitude of challenges? Thoroughly researched, theologically and biblically integrated, and uniquely personal, I Am a Leader will resonate no matter where you are on the calling journey: whether you are wondering about your God-given purpose; sensing an inkling of an invitation to a particular ministry; or embarking on the path but encountering challenges"-- Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

Each chapter has a specific theme that is applicable to those in ministry or seeking to become involved in ministry. I wish this book had been around when I first felt the call to ministry! This book challenges the reader to self reflect and discern their next steps while giving sound advice from those who've been there, including Ward herself.
One of my favorite chapters in the book was "Calling and Seasons of Life," where the author encourages the reader to examine which stage of life they're in and apply that knowledge in how they can serve during that time. Often we forget that we are still ministering when we are raising children, keeping a home, mentoring younger women or supporting our spouses. Ministry takes many different forms throughout our lives, differing by seasons.
This is a great book for anyone who feels called to a life in ministry and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a sage guide to help maneuver through the challenges, specifically those women face, in indentifying, fulfilling and living out a call on their lives. This would be even better in a group session, as I think shared experiences are at the core of this book.
I was an early reader, thanks to the author and NavPress Publishing. All opinions are my own. ( )
