Beyond the Resistance

Dave Wager

Leadership of any kind will bring on resistance and challenges of many kinds. This book is written for the Christian leader, pastor, lay leader, or corporate officer who desires to contemplate their leadership and the organization. As with Nehemiah, they said it couldn't be done - and then it was! Journal through twenty-one days focused on the book of Nehemiah and discover the principles that Nehemiah used through turbulent days. How do those who are Christian leaders differ from those who are not? Why do we operate nonprofits? What do we hope to get from our efforts? What is next for the organization? Using Beyond the Resistance as a catalyst for thought and prayer, spend extended time with God asking for the same guidance that was given to Nehemiah. Whatever the task God has placed on your heart, He also haas a plan. He is older than you, smarter than you, and loves you; you can trust Him.
