Dear Reader,You are a leader. Leadership is influencing. Therefore, you are leading right now as you influence the life of someone—in every contact and in every situation. As a Christian, you are a Christian leader. And so you want to continually grow in giving your best to God in your leading, your influencing of others. The objective of this writing is to provide a simple and practical guide for Christian leadership. It is written for every Christian, in all walks and phases of life—including the youth of today, the next generation of leaders.We submit that leading is to be nothing less than participating with God in his continuing creation. That makes leading an awesome privilege and responsibility. It follows that a leader’s objective and emphasis is, therefore, creating God’s desired future with him. We, the authors, are a layman father and his pastor son. Our writing is a dialogue between us as we share our insights and learning gained over the years. Foundational is our belief that the Bible is the greatest leadership teaching ever written. Ken Shull, the father, is retired from a career in manufacturing management. Throughout his adult life he has been, and continues to be, active in church life in a number of different leadership roles. Bob, the son, is an ordained pastor, mainly serving in that capacity as well as having experience in both for-profit and nonprofit endeavors. We are grateful for this opportunity to share with you. We acknowledge and are so thankful to our God for all the people and experiences he has brought into our lives. We serve a wonderful God.We trust that Simply Leading will serve you, even in some small way. We pray God’s rich blessings in your life and leadership.Ken and Bob Shull Less
