The study is not only exegetically thorough, it provides an implicit challenge to contemporary religious leaders to rethink and reform our own roles. In the last chapter, Agosto makes that challenge explicit in ways that are clear, helpful, and appropriately demanding. A fine book for those who provide leadership to religious communities and to those who teach those leaders." |

| Publisher Description: Servant Leadership addresses a fundamental concern of the contemporary church by asking pertinent questions of the New Testament: Who became a leader in the Jesus movement and in Pauline Christianity? What was the social status of these leaders in the outside world as compared to the importance of such social status within the faith community? What practices characterized their leadership within the communities they served? |
