This book is primarily an exposition of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount (Gospel of Matthew, Chapters 5-7), more so than a book on leadership. The author does a great job of presenting the unity of message in this portion of the Bible, and surfaces qualities that should be true of all Christians. The application to leadership seems a little shallow, perhaps more of a marketing technique than anything else. The leadership scope, such as it is, is very much aimed at church/congregation/pastoral leadership, and little effort is made to apply the uncovered truths beyond this arena.
For those looking to dive into the Sermon on the Mount, this book has one of the best explorations of the themes in this passage. But for those interested in leadership or followership studies, this book offers little that will seem new or especially relevant.
