Lord of the Flies: A Leadership Fable: Dealing with Leadership Distractions

$5.99

Distractions are a major threat to leadership. Just as a fly can shift a bus driver’s focus — from his main task of driving a vehicle safely to killing an irritating insect — a distraction can cause a leader to lose sight of his main goal.

Drawing on Biblical principles and personal experience, Bishop Joey Johnson uses the metaphor of the fly to examine why God allows distractions in a leader’s life and how the devil uses distractions to get a leader away from his main goal. In this much-needed leadership book, Johnson shows how leaders can keep their focus on their goals in the midst of irritations, detractors, enemies, and obstacles.

Healing, Social Justice, and Radical Love

Jesus Christ's life and sacrifice was an example of demonstrating love to all people regardless of their race, ethnicity, religion, education, or social class; particularly, the marginalized, vulnerable, and outcast. Real social justice begins with seeing the needs of others with eyes of compassion and humility, and then helping to uplift those who are under the weight of social misery.
