Excellent

This was a textbook for my Christian Leadership class. It has such practical and useful information. It is so enlightening and empowering. It is a must for anyone in leadership, especially Christians in leadership.

Twenty One Minutes in a Leaders Day

I love the book, filled with the conventional wisdom of Scripture and John Maxwell's application.
I was disappointed in the fact that the book was purchased "like new" in used books and I have found it to be filled with the prior owners notes and writings. I will be more cautious in the future.

Fabulous complement to John Maxwell's book and DVDs

I read John Maxwell's 21 Laws of Leadership book several years ago, and also bought his study guide DVDs at one of his seminars. This book is a fabulous complement to those because it's both a quick refresher and an extremely helpful daily devotional. I have other devotionals but many of them are inspirational only -- this one is different because it teaches valuable leadership lessons with values-based biblical stories in a quick way. I look forward to reading the next lesson each morning. I'm using this more like a study guide than a devotional. You'll find it difficult not to share the lessons with family, co-workers, or any other leadership group you're involved with whether it be business, networking or your church. The stories make the lessons easy to remember and share. Maxwell also adds additional scriptures to some of the lessons so if you want to spend a bit more time studying, you can read this simultaneously with your Bible. I like this devotional because I feel like I'm getting two things accomplished at the same time -- not only am I continuing to develop my leadership skills but I'm reading relevant scriptures as well. This may be a book that I use for the first 21 weeks of every year, as the lessons are timeless. Excellent book for use by leadership coaches. As someone else mentioned, you can use this devotional along with the 21 Laws of Leadership book if you want more content for studying and reference but you don't have to -- you can learn the lessons while using this as a standalone book/study tool.

Biblical leadership advice

John C. Maxwell provides a 21-week course of study covering 21 leadership laws based on readings from the Bible. He served as a pastor in various churches for 25 years before leaving Skyline Wesleyan in San Diego in 1995 to devote his time to writing, speaking and teaching leadership. Perhaps because he is the author of many books like this one, his writing is clear and well-suited to the purpose of educating and inspiring others, particularly those who share his Christian faith. In each chapter, Maxwell offers a brief introduction to a new principle and then supplies relevant daily Old and New Testament readings for the work-week. He focuses more on stimulating meditation and introspection than on laying out a detailed path to leadership greatness. On the fifth day of considering each principle, Maxwell invites you to use a self-assessment exercise on his Web site to help you understand the principle more fully. He also asks you to share what you have learned with others within a couple of days; the idea being that teaching a principle is the best way for you to learn it most thoroughly. getAbstract finds this to be a very useful, practical and thought-provoking book for readers who want to study leadership lessons in the light of their religious beliefs - if that's not you, then you'll want to lead the way to the next classroom instead.

the 21 most important minutes of your day

I would recommend this book to anyone --we all need to learn how to work with each other in the home --workplace--anywhere. John Maxwell does this so well guiding and teaching us truths about ourselves and others. You won't regret buying this book.

It also gives you great insights into the people of the bible. Ever wish the bible would give you more details of the peoples lives. John Maxwell has a wonderful insight into peoples lives by seeing how they handled the things God gave them to do. Also no way does he switch things around to give the bible a different meaning--
