Do you want to be a better leader? Raise the threshold of your pain. Do you want your church to grow or your business to reach higher goals? Reluctance to face pain is your greatest limitation. There is no growth without change, no change without loss, and no loss without pain. Bottom line: if you're not hurting, you're not leading. But this book is not a theological treatise on pain. Rather in Leadership Pain Samuel Chand--best-selling author recognized as "the leader's leader"--provides a concrete, practical understanding of the pain we experience to help us interpret pain more accurately and learn the lessons God has in it for us. Chand is ruthlessly honest and highly practical as he examines the principles and practices that make our pain a means of fulfilling God's divine purposes for our churches, communities, and us. These features are included in this leadership treasure trove: POWERFUL, personal stories from some of the finest leaders in the world, such as Craig Groeschel, Benny Perez, Mike Kai, Lisa Bevere, Mark Chironna, Dale Bronner, Philip Wagner, Michael Pitts, and numerous others REVEALING INSIGHTS into the growth that occurs through pain in leadership roles PRACTICAL EXERCISES to help you apply the valuable principles you are learning… (more)

Jim bought this for me for us to do book review together. Read it during the spring/summer of 2021. Jim and I exchanged emails through the first half of the book answering the questions together, but unfortunately did not finish. I enjoyed parts of the book, but not necessarily the author's theology. It was very specific to leadership from a pastoral perspective and made me think of my mom and dad a lot in terms of the struggles they went through. Full of plenty of good lessons about leadership pain, but not necessarily worth the long read. Not going to get a huge recommendation from me unless its to someone struggling as a pastor or considering becoming one.

Very helpful in communicating the message that the level of one's ability to lead is directly connected to one's ability to endure pain. The bigger your dream, the bigger your pain... The illustrations of pain and heartbreak in the book were very helpful for me to gain perspective on the leadership pain I experienced in the past. ( )
