Synopsis:

Servant Leadership Models for Your Parish explores the practice of servant leadership in a church context. It presents seven behaviors practiced by leaders and members in high-performing parishes and provides real-life examples of these practices. The unique contribution of this work to the national discussion about parish life and leadership is its description of servant leadership and its explanation of how it works in a parish. This work suggests that parish life can be viewed in light of business principles such as the organizational behaviors of leaders and members in a Christian parish, and religious teaching, particularly the message of Jesus, who taught leaders to be servants and members to be disciples. Intended for pastors and parish leaders, pastoral associates and deacons, parish staff and lay members of parishes who are interested in leadership, it is sure to be indispensable reading for anyone who is interested in changing or improving the leadership, the activities, and the culture of their parish. †
