Strengthening the Soul of Your Leadership:
Seeking God in the Crucible of Ministry
"I have received Strengthening the Soul of Your Leadership and it is such a blessing. It is giving me the time to read and meditate at a pace much more conducive to processing and praying and integrating such helpful principles into my life. I am grateful for the authenticity, clarity, and insightfulness with which it is written. Your journey and insights resonate with me in very helpful ways. I am learning a pace of life and ministry that fits me and provides a sense of self awareness that is helping me better monitor my life, ministry, and walk with God.

“Strengthening the Soul of Your Leadership is moving, inspirational, and convicting. Not since I've read Nouwen have I read anything more stirring. Thank you for writing it!"
—Glandion Carney, Chaplain, Christian Legal Society
"In a landscape littered with leadership books that tinker at the margins of what really matters, Ruth Haley Barton offers us practical guidance to the core of life-changing leadership: spiritual authenticity and health."
—Gary Haugen, President, International Justice Mission
"Strengthening the Soul of Your Leadership is one of the best books I’ve ever read about leadership. Ruth Barton deals with the challenges of leadership and goes far beyond the usual trendy talk found in most other books to something much more substantive---a depth of being and living to which spiritual leaders are called. Ruth’s insights, drawn from Scripture, the life of Moses, and her own extensive leadership experience, are profound and guaranteed to impact how you lead. The chapter on spiritual discernment alone is well worth the price of the book."
—Rory Noland, Heart of the Artist Ministries
