Each year a number of excellent leadership books are published. Of course, so are a lot of bad ones. It’s hard enough for busy leaders to carve out time to read, let alone hunt for the best titles. That’s why we do the annual Leadership Book Awards. We comb through stacks of ministry and leadership books, and select the ones we believe are worth your valuable time. Again the winners have been chosen by our contributing editors in two categories: The Leader’s Inner Life and The Leader’s Outer Life. We highly recommend these titles as you strive to develop the leadership gifts to further the ministry God has entrusted to your care.<\/p>\n\n

The Leader’s Inner Life<\/h2>\n\n

Best of The Best:<\/h2>\n\nHumilitas<\/a><\/strong>\nA Lost Key to Life, Love, and Leadership<\/em>\nby John Dickson (Zondervan)<\/span>\n\n

“A transformative yet largely unexplored virtue is explored from various angles to reveal its surprising depth and power.” —Wayne Schmidt<\/p>\n\n

Our Very Short List:<\/h2>\n\nSanctuary of the Soul<\/a><\/strong>\nJourney into Meditative Prayer<\/em>\nBy Richard Foster (IVP)<\/span>\n\n

“The author plumbs the deepest biblical view of meditation and its ability to transform … an excellent refocusing on a crucial topic.”—Nina Gunter<\/p>\n\nWith<\/a><\/strong>Reimagining the Way You Relate to God<\/em>by Skye Jethani (Thomas Nelson)<\/span>\n\n

“This book changes the way we think about God. If we understood even half of what it means to live with God, our world would be transformed.”—Kara Powell<\/p>\n\nGoing Deep<\/a><\/strong>Becoming a Person of Influence<\/em>\nby Gordon MacDonald (Thomas Nelson)<\/span>\n\n

“The author calls for helping people to go deep with God. This book is a timely and practical guide on how to disciple others in a way that will foster spiritual maturity.”—Nina Gunter<\/p>\n\nLove Wins<\/a><\/strong>\nA Book About Heaven, Hell, and the Fate of Every Person Who Ever Lived<\/em>\nby Rob Bell (HarperOne)<\/span>\n\n

“Bell’s book stirred the evangelical community like nothing in recent history. As he concedes, his conclusions are not new, but he started a lively conversation based on the questions a generation is asking, questions that won’t go away anytime soon.”—Katherine Callahan Howell<\/p>\n\n

The Leader’s Outer Life<\/h2>\n\n

Best of The Best:<\/h2>\n\nThe Pastor<\/a><\/strong>\nA Memoir<\/em>\nby Eugene Peterson (HarperOne)<\/span>\n\n

“With poetic imagination and prophetic insight, Peterson reviews a pastoral life dedicated to a community of everyday people being formed by Christ.—David Swanson<\/p>\n\n

Our Very Short List:<\/h2>\n\nRenovation of the Church<\/a><\/strong>\nWhat Happens When a Seeker Church \nDiscovers Spiritual Formation<\/em>\nby Kent Carlson and Mike Lueken (IVP)<\/span>\n\n

“A fascinating peek behind the mega church curtain … this book about an unlikely transition is startlingly honest, provocative, and humbling.”—Lillian Daniel<\/p>\n\nMove<\/a><\/strong>\nWhat 1,000 Churches Reveal about Spiritual Growth<\/em>\nby Greg L. Hawkins and Cally Parkinson (Zondervan)<\/span>\n\n

“Compelling research breaks church leaders out of denial and directs them to the truth about our greatest commission—making disciples.”—Wayne Schmidt<\/p>\n\nYou Lost Me<\/a><\/strong>\nWhy Young Christians Are Leaving Church … and Rethinking Faith<\/em>\nby David Kinnaman (Baker)<\/span>\n\n

“The next generation is leaving institutional Christianity but they are drawn to movements of God which invest in relational discipleship. Kinnaman sounds the alarm while providing savvy advice on connecting with disaffected youth.”—Charles Kyker<\/p>\n\nRadical Together<\/a><\/strong>\nUnleashing the People of God for the Purpose of God<\/em>\nby David Platt (Multnomah)<\/span>\n\n

“Platt challenges churches to move beyond self-centered Christianity and live out the gospel with abandon. An excellent reminder that only in losing your life will you ever find it.”—Charles Kyker<\/p>\n\n
