Drawing from his extensive teachings on spiritual formation, Willard illuminates the timeless wisdom contained within each parable, revealing their profound relevance to contemporary life. With clarity and depth, he guides readers through the subversive messages embedded within these seemingly simple stories, urging us to break free from the grip of worldly values and embrace the radical teachings of Jesus. The Scandal of the Kingdom is not just a book—it's a call to action.

I love the context that this book provides that leads to looking at other passage of scriptures deeper and of course prayer with the Holy Spirit! I’ve learned so much from this and understand why John Mark Comer said “his soul came alive and how he fell in love with Jesus more deeply”while reading this. Highly recommended. Never looked at the Parables this way. @timprattjr

I love how this book explained how to truly excel with the "Fixed-Flexible-Freestyle" approach; cultivating an entrepreneurial mindset. It’s all about embracing the ability to pivot, adjust, and adapt. This mindset empowers you to seize opportunities as they arise and bounce back when things don’t go as planned. Flexibility is your greatest asset! I love the Coaching Corners as it brought balance packed with so much wisdom. This is most definitely a modern classic. - @timprattjr (IG)

Today’s follower of Jesus exists at a moment when our desires, longings, and wants are being weaponized against us by cultural, spiritual, and relational forces. “Follow your heart” and “You do you” have become our moment's mantras. The Gift of Thorns Audio Study addresses the core human problem: What in the world do I do with my desire?

Reviewed: 11-26-24
In The Gift of Thorns, A.J. Swoboda explores the nature of human desire, showing how God-given desires were created good but have been distorted by sin. The book challenges readers to reorder and align their desires with God’s will, often requiring the denial of selfish wants for spiritual growth. Swoboda offers practical insights on confronting harmful desires, nurturing godly ones, and embracing disciplines that transform the heart.

Was looking for a fresh perspective on team dynamics and to be an inspiration. I must say Val Ries delivered. After listening on Audible, I’m ordering the physical copy today.
I love practical and actionable approaches. She doesn’t just emphasize the importance of inspiration, she provides clear strategies and real-world examples that empower leaders to put these ideas into action and see real results in their context.

While you know AI is the future, current demands leave you with no time to explore its benefits. Meanwhile, your competition is gaining an edge by integrating AI. The time to act is now.

He drives home the point of using AI as a thought partner, not a thought leader. It’s very practical and does not tell you how to think strategically, but rather encourages you to use AI as a tool to enhance your own strategic thinking. Geoff Woods emphasizes the importance of maintaining human intuition and judgment while leveraging AI’s capabilities to streamline processes and uncover insights. The book is filled with actionable advice, making it a valuable guide for leaders who want to integrate AI into their decision-making without losing the human element. It’s a must-read for those looking to elevate their leadership by using AI as an enabler, not a replacement.

From the moment He arrived on the scene, Jesus posed a threat to the unjust, a threat to the oppressors, and a threat to every semblance of authority wielded by the kingdom of darkness. He invaded the world with love for the forgotten, hope for the hopeless, and freedom for the bound. His ideas were disruptive, subversive, and scandalous to the world around Him.

We know the impacts of poor leadership: lackluster performance, missed opportunities, deleterious cultures, and, in some cases, disaster. While these issues are all too common, leaders also possess an immense opportunity. They can create a speak-up culture, one in which people feel it is both safe and worth it to share their ideas, concerns, disagreements, and even mistakes—all for the betterment of the organization. Speak-Up Culture is for leaders at all levels who desire to know a better way to behave as a leader.

Reviewed: 10-14-23
This is going to be a go-to book when it comes to Culture. He goes beyond the surface-level “great culture” that companies strive to create.
He's really big on leadership, but more so that it's a behavior rather than a title. You will love the stories he uses to drive home the point.

There has always been a special weight to ministry. As pastors come to lead their churches, they recognize very quickly the task they have been called to comes with very special expectations. And with each passing year, it feels like we now live in a time when pastors and ministry leaders can no longer live up to those expectations. Burnout is rampant. Pastors are stepping down in order to protect the well-being of themselves and their families. Moral failings seem to bring down leaders we once viewed as giants.

I believe this is a great intro and reminder of fundamentals. I wish I would've read (listen) to this way before ministry but so glad I came across it. I believe it's sound and would agree with about 85-90 percent of the book.
