Book Cover & Preview Text
It is often other people who recognize our own hidden potential. Each person needs someone to help unlock potential and activate those gifts and abilities; this is why it is essential for key mentors to be given access to speak into our lives. Wilderness experiences, times of wandering, serving others and anonymous years are necessary preparations for our purpose. It is not enough just to know the mechanics of ministry and service to others, it is living out of a passionate heart to demonstrate God’s purpose and fulfill our God-given assignment in the earth that crafts the brokenness needed to serve God and others effectively. People want to follow a broken leader. They want to hear brokenness in the voice of their leader and need assurance that the leader understands what they are feeling and that he or she can identify with the difficulty of change. The fight to fulfill purpose, to move toward the future, and then tenaciously to hold the ground taken must be intentional. The enemy of our soul is absolutely determined to destroy futures and eliminate the ability to influence our generation with the power of God’s word. Chuck Pierce in his book Prayers That Outwit the Enemy equates passion with the word path, which actually is the root word for passion or pathway. Passion can be simply linked to our path. The god of this world can cause us to be passive on our path and then our passion for God becomes misdirected. Passivity will cause us to quit resisting, and to become indifferent to the condition of our nation, our neighbors, our community and our culture. Dr. Pierce states, “Passion is a powerful controlling sentiment that can overwhelm our state of mind and influence our actions, for good or bad.” Passion is morally neutral; our path is determined by what passion will produce! Thom Raines in his book Breakout Churches sites one of his staff members John Ewart who states, “Passion is hard to define, but I know it when I see it.” Thom gives us a relevant picture of a Church that has lost her purpose, which has affected her passion to evangelize and without evangelism the Church ceases to grow!

The study of biblical, historical and contemporary leaders reveals the disturbing fact that few leaders finish well. Studies show that there are key barriers that can exist in the life of the leader that contribute to downfall and, if we desire to finish well, we must be aware of them. While leadership failure will continue to be a reality in our societies, there are key traits that we can identify and develop from those leaders who have finished well, who have left a legacy to contribute to the success of we who follow. The application of these characteristics, coupled with strong spiritual disciplines, is the focal point for all leaders who desire to finish well, and not be disqualified for service.
