Understanding and Using Power (L5)

Roger Preece discusses the biblical use of power and grapples with the issues it can bring in this booklet, giving confidence to those who need it, and humbling those who may have too much confidence.

All leaders have power. Power changes things and power prevents things from changing.

This booklet explores the dynamics and characteristics of power and will help us understand its sources. It seeks to increase the confidence of those who feel powerless, humble those who feel powerful and make us more aware of our use and potential abuse of power in its many forms.

The Grove Leadership Series is a partnership between CPAS and Grove Books, offering fresh thinking and ideas to ensure the difference leadership makes is biblical, thoughtful and practical. Grove Booklets are fast moving explorations of Christian life and ministry: 'Not the last word ... but often the first'.
