This booklet, written by Brian Fraser in 1993, offers a distinctive look at leadership in the Presbyterian Church in Canada.
From the Prologue: Confidence, compassion, clarity, and courage are the four elements necessary to ignite and sustain the fires of faith—confidence in God, compassion in mission, clarity in purpose, and courage in action. This book explores those images in relation to leadership in The Presbyterian Church in Canada. It may be of value to leaders in other branches of the church, but I have written it especially for those who are Ministers of Word and Sacraments, Diaconal Ministers, and Ruling Elders within my own denomination. They have all been given and accepted leadership responsibility among God's people and exercise their callings as a partnership in the denomination's courts and agencies. They are what a friend calls "that venerable guild of those who tend and water the Burning Bush."
