He speaks very candidly of a life of addiction and of his deliverance. What Satan once meant to use for evil, God has now converted and uses for the good of His kingdom building here on earth.

It was penned as it was bathed in a servant spirit of brokenness and humility as it exalted the Savior and edified the Saints! In some instances, the lessons provoked repentance, revitalization, and refreshment in me! I believe that it is a MUST-READ for every blood-bought born-again believer that has been birthed in the Body of Christ! For as ministers of reconciliation, we are all leaders, as we are living epistles read of all men ( 2 Cor.3:2). The only Bibles many will read in our lives! (Matt.5:16) With blessed transparency, Dr. Payton shares godly wisdom as he assembled a multiplicity of real-life issues and struggles, that will equip and encourage us to be an ocular demonstration and a pictorial illustration of incarnational truth manifesting the power of God in our person, which is a primary prerequisite for leadership! (1 Tim.3:2a; John 15:13) This book is a Rhema word!! For we live in a day where many mistakes in leaders, gift for character. For the ability to eloquently articulate the Agenda of the Almighty when it comes to the proclamation, has nothing to do with persistent practicum or being a good Christian by living the Spirit-filled life! (Matt.22;37-40; Gal.5:16; James 1:22-25)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMy Grandmother said, \"I'd rather see a good sermon any day than hear one! Thank you, Dr. Payton, for this word will usher in a revival of Godliness and Holiness in leaders that will be a catalyst to fix fractures, and revolutionize relationships and realities as we walk as Kingdom citizens with our Redeemer!\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eK.

Bless you, my brother ( 3 John 2). Leadership Reflections is one of those rare books you'll want to give every leader you know.
