"Sharp observations, reflective descriptions, with meaningful application of Scripture, The Good Shepherd brings to life how leaders are formed—biblically, theologically, and practically. I highly commend this important book to you." —Rev. Samuel E. Chiang, Deputy Secretary General, World Evangelical Alliance

"A brilliant integration of knowledge and application and an invaluable gift to those who are looking for exceptional tools for their sabbatical or for daily reflection during the forty days of Resurrection to Ascension. Thank you, Dr. Laniak, for this inspiring work on biblical shepherd leadership!" —Dr. Bekele Shanko, global vice president, Campus Crusade for Christ International

"This book equipped hundreds of leaders in our congregation to see themselves as biblical shepherds of people, not merely organizational managers of roles." —Rev. Dr. Mike Moses, founding and lead pastor, Lake Forest Church, Huntersville, NC; church planter and church planting coach, Evangelical Presbyterian Church
