THE FOREMAN THE MINISTER: A Practical guide to blue-collar leadership with Godly Principles

In this book, I share the wisdom, failures, victories, and revelations that come from 24 years of real leadership experience —from the long warehouse aisles of blue-collar work to the sacred ground of church ministry. Blending biblical truth with practical leadership principles , this book will not only shape you as a leader but edify you spiritually , strengthen your character, and sharpen your purpose. Across the pages, I open up stories from my past—moments in ministry, seasons in life, and years on the job—that forged the leader in me. These stories are honest, instructive, and relatable for every kind of leader. Whether you are: a young supervisor finding your footing, - a new minister called to shepherd others, - a father raising a family, or - a husband learning to lead with love— you are a leader. But in today’s world, leadership is often measured by status, skills, and how much you know. Yet the greatest truth I have learned is this: Leadership is not about command—it’s about compassion. Not about titles—but about servanthood. True leadership begins where self-interest ends. This book will help you: Build leadership rooted in humility and character - Lead your family, workplace, or ministry with confidence and grace - Grow through failure, responsibility, and spiritual discipline - Discover how God shapes leaders through everyday moments - Develop a heart that serves others before serving yourself If you desire to grow, to influence, to serve, and to lead with integrity, this book will guide you step by step—through Scripture, through lived experience, and through lessons forged in both the workplace and the Kingdom of God. Leadership is not something you chase; it is something God cultivates within you. And this book will help bring that calling to life.
