Acknowledged by Christianity Today as one of the most influential preachers of his time, John MacArthur (now 76 years old) has served Grace Community Church in Los Angeles, California for more than 47 years. He has written more than 150 books, including one in 2004 entitled Called to Lead: Leadership Lessons from the Life of the Apostle Paul.
In this book, MacArthur provides 26 characteristics of a leader, drawing from when Paul was at his best as a leader—in Acts 27 and 2 Corinthians. MacArthur explains, “What we learn from Paul is the same thing that Jesus taught: that character—not style, not technique, not methodology, but character—is the true biblical test of great leadership.”
