Some of the poems in I Don’t Want to Be a Leader! But… are carryover from my first book, Deliverance: An Allegory of Scripture. The relationship enhanced between God and me, during that work, morphed into a desire to minister, to serve others, with the wonderful information I had learned about the complete goodness of God’s nature. As a minister’s wife and church secretary, I saw intimately the struggles and triumphs occurring within ministers active in everyday ministry. I learned that some people pursue ministry for titles and the honor of men. Some pursue ministry out of a sense of familial obligation and legacy. And some forgo ministry due to the negatives they see in others. This collection of poems in I Don’t Want to Be a Leader! But… addresses the many phases of ministry that every minister will experience. Whether you are destined to minister out front or behind the scenes, the honesty of your relationship with God and his people is vital to your ministerial success. These 53 scripturally backed poems cause you to evaluate your spiritual state, motives and goals. Read and revisit this book to refresh, refocus and strengthen your ministries.
