No one doubts that we are all flawed people but in our social-media driven polarized society, we often fall into the trap of categorizing people as wholly good or wholly bad. In reality, everyone is a mix of the two. Alternatively, we realise that God loves and calls people in spite of their faults and failings, but that we're still not 'good' enough to qualify.
Drawing on years of careful study and pastoral ministry, Bishop of Plymouth James Grier reveals the ways in which the heroes of scripture are more like us than we realise, with both their God-given strengths and profound weaknesses The book is in four parts exploring; the beginning of leadership in Genesis, Moses: the person who walked so closely with God, the first two kings and finally Jesus' apostles. Bishop James, along with his wife Liz, add colour to the teaching with insights and anecdotes from their own experiences.
This is a book for anyone who is trying, in however stumbling a way, to follow Jesus, whether as a leader or simply as a follower. It will offer reassurance to those who have been shaken by the failure of a leader, aspire to step into leadership themselves or are just trying to lead where they are. It asks questions of our hearts and attitudes. It provides practical encouragement as we seek to follow God and become more like him, despite our shortcomings.
