Book Review :Title - The Family Life of a Christian Leader by Ajith Fernando

Here is a book filled with lots of good advice by a seasoned servant of God, whose heart is for all Christian leaders to enjoy the balance between family life and life at large ie work, ministry and society. When this balance is not kept, usually the family of the Christian leader is heading towards a slippery slope.

The book's starting chapter on God to be the first focus of the Christian Leader encapsulates the biggest action for family recovery from most issues they face. Then Ajith Fernando talks about this interesting topic of Crucifying Self and gives plenty of good examples and applications on how it fosters a healthy home. This section is a must read.

For every chapter of the book (13 chapters only), Ajith shares from God's Word and gives lots of situational illustrations and applicational actions from his years of ministry experience working with people. You could literally see (or laugh) yourself in many of those illustrations he used. It is a book filled with words of wisdom, coming from a sage and it is a buffet treat of essential deep topics covering Lordship, Christian Living, Marriage, Unity, Conflicts, Parenting, etc.

Other titles by Ajith Fernando are:
1. Jesus Driven Ministry
2. Leadership Lifestyle
3. Sensible Behaviour
4. The Call to Joy and Pain
