Leaders know how easy it is in the midst of opportunities, demands and expectations to focus on the activity of leadership and not to spend much time on reflecting on who we are, what we are doing and how to grow as a leader. Taking stock is a crucial step in establishing where we are and what we need to give our attention, so that we are not simply swayed by the clamouring demands around us. As we take stock, our leadership is strengthened, helping us to be effective and to be revitalized, whatever our leadership context. In Lead On, James Lawrence takes leaders on a on a journey of reflection, taking stock of their leadership and seeking ways to move forward and grow. Through thirty reflections, grouped by themes and accompanied by short articles, leaders are given a structured process to work through, considering both the inner and outer life. Each reflection is accompanied by questions to explore and suggested resources to follow up, with a process of prayer and review at the end of each section. Drawing on a wealth of experience and resources from CPAS, this is an approachable yet comprehensive resource for Christian leaders in any sphere.

Seven out of ten Christian leaders feel overworked, four in ten suffer financial pressures, only two in ten have had management training and 1,500 give up their job over a ten-year period. At the same time, as financial restrictions affect the availability of full-time ministers, more people are needed for leadership roles in local congregations, for every area of church work. This book faces the challenge of raising up new leaders and helping existing leaders to mature, using the model for growing leaders at the heart of the Arrow Leadership Programme, a ministry of the Church Pastoral Aid Society (CPAS). It comprehensively surveys leadership skills and styles, discerning our personal calling, avoiding the 'red zone' of stress, developing character, and living as part of the community of God's people. The book contains twelve chapters, in six sections, plus a resources section: Part 1: Leadership today, Part 2: Growing leaders know they're chosen, Part 3: Growing leaders discern God's call, Part 4: Growing leaders develop Christ-like character, Part 5: Growing leaders cultivate competence, Part 6: Growing leaders lead in community.First published in 2004.

“The most essential San Francisco novel since The Maltese Falcon."—Marcia DeSanctis, author of A Hard Place to LeaveThree crimes. Three centuries. One truth.In 1990, San Francisco investigator George Krishna Walker battles corrupt police, international organized crime rings, and the ghosts of his own past to solve related cases that span 350 years.He is hired by old flame Hannah Rose to investigate the death of her father, a former district attorney killed by a cable car in what police quickly dismiss as an accident. Walker and Hannah share a complicated past, and as he begins asking questions, old feelings resurface, along with troubling evidence that the death was anything but accidental. The deeper he digs, the clearer it becomes that the truth behind Harrison Rose’s death is far more dangerous than anyone imagined.Walker’s search leads him through San Francisco neighborhoods—Chinatown, North Beach, the waterfront—where he relies on an eclectic network of allies, including a teenage forensics prodigy, a philosophizing taxi driver, Homicide Detail partners, and a waterfront psychic who shares his past in India. The investigation deepens when he and Hannah discover documents in her father’s possession connected to the Hurricane, a Gold Rush–era ship captained by her ancestor—and a priceless Inca dagger missing from her father’s house.Those documents point to a larger mystery: an international artifact theft ring, a corrupt UC Berkeley archaeologist determined to locate the long-buried wreck of the Hurricane, and rumors of a legendary ransom of Inca gold tied to the ship’s cargo. As Walker follows the trail from San Francisco’s buried Gold Rush waterfront to the Peruvian jungle, he uncovers links to a long-dormant police corruption case—and finds himself pursued by dangerous men willing to kill to claim what they want.
