As Christians, each of us is called to bring people together through the Spirit of God. By developing our inner characterour heartwe can have a greater role in other peoples lives, and others can have more significance in our own growth as leaders. Genuine influence is a deep summons to our most authentic selvesan exciting exploration that is often missing in our culture of quick fixes and easy advice.

In The Influential Christian, Michael Andrews reveals how engaging in spiritual practices that exercise empathy allows us to cultivate influence in our personal, professional, and spiritual lives. Drawing upon Gods spiritual resources as we interact with other people, we build the integrity necessary to be empathic leaders.

As readers will discover, building character is much more than completing a checklist of self-improvement initiativesits a pilgrimage into the full meaning of being human and being Christian.
