By actual count, the mail ran more than fifty to one highly favorable. We figured you wouldn&#39;t mind, therefore, if we ran just the following selected kudos:<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;It&#39;s nice to know we&#39;re not alone. LEADERSHIP not only described our ministry situation, but gave us workable solutions from those with more experience.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Mr. and Mrs. Steven R. Doerr <\/strong> |  St. Paul, Minnesota<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;I rarely read a magazine from cover to cover. However, I was so encouraged, helped, and stimulated by LEADERSHIP that I had to send you a word of sincere thanks.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>David D. Allen, Jr.<\/strong>  |  Richardson, Texas<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;We have ordered subscriptions for all four of our staff members. That decision communicates my reaction to your quarterly.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Bruce Bell <\/strong> |  Wichita, Kansas<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;The cartoons are superb. I can conceive of a publication years hence entitled The Best of LEADERSHIP Humor.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Peter Veltman <\/strong> |  Wheaton, Illinois<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;My wife hasn&#39;t laid the first issue of LEADERSHIP down long enough for me to read it. She&#39;s usually not interested in magazines for the clergy, but LEADERSHIP is different. It scratches where you itch.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>G.L. Johnson  <\/strong>|  Fresno, California<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;I have marked and underlined my copy. It would have been great to have had such a journal thirtytwo years ago when I first entered the ministry.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>J. David Schmidt, Sr.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;I&#39;ve just reviewed the first issue of LEADERSHIP. I m excited. It has the feel of a management book.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Robert A. Crandall<\/strong>  |  Winona Lake, Indiana<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;Someone &quot;stole&quot; my copy of LEADERSHIP. Would you please send me another?&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Leighton Ford <\/strong> |  Charlotte, N. Carolina<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;LEADERSHIP is the best practical magazine I&#39;ve ever read.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Bill Messer <\/strong> |   Lawrenceburg, Kansas<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;Your promise was fulfilled in the first issue. Theological education isn&#39;t enough to prepare us for a thorough understanding of power and authority-the warp and woof of pastoral life.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>David C. Fisher<\/strong>  |  Bloomington, Minnesota<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;Thanks for the interview with Fred Smith. I first met him thirteen years ago at a Laymen&#39;s Leadership Institute. I&#39;ll never forget his definition of hell. He said, &#39;Hell is having God show you all of the opportunities you missed.&#39;&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Wilbert Eichenberger  <\/strong>|  Garden Grove, California<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;The cartoons are terrific. Are they available to be purchased? I&#39;d like to put them on our bulletin board.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Judson Baldwin <\/strong> |  Stuarts Draft, Virginia<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;The first issue came while I was out of town. My son saw it first and immediately read &quot;Reflections of a Preacher&#39;s Kid.&quot; Then my wife saw it and read &quot;Ministers Wives: The Walking Wounded.&quot; Finally I got to see it. Thanks for ministering to my family.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Dwight W. Bland <\/strong> |  Flint, Michigan<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;The first issue is terrific! Enclosed is a check for six more copies.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>A. F. Volmer<\/strong>  |  Los Gatos, California<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;Frankly, LEADERSHIP exceeded my expectations-and they were high indeed!&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Ted Engstrom<\/strong>  |  Monrovia, California<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;Every article was well-written and useful. Your format resembles the Harvard Business Review. Excellent!&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Peter T. Simeone<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;I&#39;m a charter subscriber to Christianity Today and happy to be the same for LEADERSHIP.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>C. Orville Kool <\/strong> |  Sioux City, Iowa<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;I was so impressed by The Ministry&#39;s Gordian Knot that I had excerpts typed up and stenciled for all of our church leaders.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Ron Swafford <\/strong> |  Melbourne, Florida<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;You have encouraged me to keep LEADERSHIP on my shelf as a permanent reference volume. Keep up the good work.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Max E. Anders <\/strong> |  Fayetteville, Georgia<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;LEADERSHIP is a publication whose time has come. Solid leadership is greatly lacking in our time and I feel you will help fill the void.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Jim Smoke<\/strong>  |  Tustin, California<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;I hate waiting three months for another issue.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>John Records <\/strong> |   Oshkosh, Wisconsin<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;A busy pastor must decide what materials merit reading time.
