This book provides a model, based on Paul’s letter to the church in Philippi, to help pastors lead in a manner that brings lasting change and maturity to congregational members. The project addresses the need for pastors to move beyond a transactional mindset to a transformational approach to leadership, and it provides a model for them to follow. Tim Gregory grounds the call to transformational leadership in a close reading of Paul, drawing out multiple dimensions of what that leadership should strive to develop in a faith community.

"This work is an important tool provided to pastoral leaders to strengthen the impact that they have on the people they shepherd. Pastors have a deep longing, desire, and focus on seeing transformation in the lives of their parishioners. The model presented in this work provides insights on how to guide that transformation into the likeness of Christ for God’s glory." (Russell L. Huizing, Professor of Pastoral Ministry, Toccoa Falls College, USA)
