Success can only be truly measured by God’s Word and is only possible when you play by God’s rules. Effective Christian leadership requires both character and competence. Most leaders don’t fail because of incompetence but because of lack of character.

Join Dr Gehman as he draws from his extensive knowledge, experience, and access to Christian leaders in Africa to bring you Essential Leadership Lessons covering the topics of leadership essentials, humility, love, holiness, attributes, management skills, and common issues.

While the context and application of these leadership lessons were created with the people of Africa in mind, the principles of Christian leadership are the same everywhere, for everyone, on all continents.
