Review Quotes: 'As an enthusiastic participant in the gospel-centered movement and beneficiary of all Jared's books, I found this one the most direct and helpful. Jared clearly understands the dangers we face of drifting to the right or the left and calls us to the gospel, not just to a gospel-centered movement. How refreshing it is to apply the perfect life, atoning death, and victorious resurrection of Christ to the life of the church and the church leader. What a labor of love and genuine gift this book is to the larger church!'--Clint Pressley, president of the Southern Baptist Convention and senior pastor at Hickory Grove Baptist Church
