When life leaves you broken, where do you turn? From the streets of South Central Los Angeles, where dreams are stifled by violence and despair, to the discovery of grace through servant-leadership, Ernest Davis'Äôs journey proves that the darkest trials can give rise to the brightest transformations.
In Leading in the Lord'Äôs Way, Davis chronicles his path from homelessness and gang culture to becoming a leader shaped by Christ'Äôs example. Through personal stories of resilience'Äîsurviving injury, battling depression, and seeking redemption'Äîhe reveals how faith forged a life rooted in service and empathy. Drawing on experiences of leadership learned not in boardrooms but in the crucible of hardship, Davis explores how principles of servant-leadership can foster personal growth and inspire others.
This book offers more than leadership advice'Äîit is a guide for anyone searching for purpose amidst life'Äôs setbacks. Davis promises that by walking in the light of Christ'Äôs teachings, we can overcome the burdens of our past and build communities grounded in love and service. Whether you lead from the margins or the forefront, Leading in the Lord'Äôs Way will empower you to see that the trials we endure are the very tools that qualify us to lead.
