Servanthood: Leadership for the Third Millennium
By Bennett J. Sims
This book seeks to integrate the religious and secular dimensions
of life in a fresh understanding of power. "Servanthood" is a proper

standpoint, "servanthood" tends to mean a lofty ideal appropriate
isolated from the so-called "real" world of win/lose competition.
From the secular perspective "servanthood" often means "servitude"-either
imposed on women and racially different groups by male dominant
cultures, or self-imposed by both men and women from fear of their
own powers and self-worth as those whom Jesus names "the light of
the world" (Matthew 5:14). Read More >>
