I have read a great many of Mark Batterson's books and blogged a lot about 'In a pit with a lion on a snowy day'.
This is an hours talk called 'The Circle Maker' on things he has learnt on church growth and leadership and draws heavily on the life of Moses. I have listened to it twice and have made some thorough notes on it. If you lead a church, are part of a leadership team or wonder if you might like to be part of either one some day then this is worth your time.
The five principle he lays out are:
1. Walk with God
2. Work with a team
3. Learn to love people and preach the Bible
4. Develop thick skin
5. Take care of yourself
