Theology, outline, a brief overview, and the chapters of the Book of Genesis. And if you know someone in leadership or is called to leadership and isn't there yet, this book would make an excellent gift.This summary of the book of Genesis provides information about the title, author(s), date of writing, chronology, theme, But if you're in leadership, this book is a must have. As another reader stated, this is not a good Bible for the average layman that isn't called to leadership. You'll also see those that you're leading differently, too. And if you're like me, you'll see yourself differently in terms of being a Christian leader. To every thing that's in the Bible, you'll see it in whole new light. If you're a pastor (as I am) or involved in any other type of leadership, you won't see leadership the same way again after reading and using this Bible.
He explains the Bible books, characters, and stories and shows how leaders can use it to learn what to do and what not to do. What John Maxwell does is take the Bible and views it from the vantage point of leaders and leadership. Prior to reading this Bible, I never viewed the Bible as a leadership book overall. But I read this Bible cover-tocover during my daily devotional time in 2002. So I don't know how much of his leadership Bible compares to any of them. I haven't read any of his books on leadership. He was and still a powerful teacher and speaker. He good deliver an excellent message and get his ideas across to anyone listening. This was back when he was still a church pastor. I've heard John Maxwell speak at Promise Keepers. Everyone will benefit by considering how his/her leadership qualities compare with the Bible.Read and be encouraged! The non-Christian can also benefit from the book by considering how the biblical type of leadership so often contrasts with worldly leadership.

Quite frankly, I find much inspiration from the Scriptures to lead properly and not cut corners when the pressure is turned up.All in all, a highly recommended read for the Christian who wants to learn (and get encouragement) on how to lead from a biblical basis.
With the failures the world has recently seen in the ministry, politics, and business, Maxwell's Leadership Bible is welcomed read for those who are looking for a biblical basis for how to/how not to lead.Maxwell's premise is that leaders are to serve others (just like Jesus) and not lord it over them (like worldly "leadership" so often does.). Topical index of various leadership materials.The reader has to bear in mind that this not necessarily a study Bible but a Bible whose focus is leadership. Short articles and "Read As You Go" notes as you progress through the Bible.5. A brief introduction to each book of the Bible and how leadership principles were applied.4. Over 100 biographical profiles from people in the Bible.3.
Excerpts from the 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership and 21 Indispensible Qualities of a Leader books.2. In my humble opinion, The Maxwell Leadership Bible is better than any of the books, simply because Maxwell takes the core concepts from his various books and shows how they are applied in the Bible.For example, Maxwell includes:1. Maxwell has found them all! Also recommended: 'With Joseph in the University of Adversity' ('The Qualities of an Effective Leader' chapter), and 'The Mizraim Prinicples', authored by Dr. This is more of a textbook than a Bible, but I guarantee-there is nothing else like it! Unlike so many other attempts which end up balancing a secular principle on a thread of Scripture, Maxwell really searches the Scripture, and the applications he gleans are relevant! If you ever hope to teach or learn virtually every leadership quality, tenet, or principle found in the Bible-your search is over. There is enough teaching and study material here to occupy one's time for years, and none is fluff. How does he introduce such qualities into a Bible, though? Wonderfully! Maxwell takes every possible aspect of leaderhip (dozens and dozens) and ties them into Biblical characters and situations.
His secular works are required reading, and nothing comes close in excellence. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but this work exceeded all my expectations on what a Bible with such a title should look like! Maxwell is known as the peerless master of teaching leadership qualities.
