Leadership Book Short-takes

"Short-takes"

No time to read an entire book? Not to worry. Join with other members in our CCNI community to hear an executive summary with Biblical applications.

As coaches, we tend to do most of our work alone. Let's set aside time to purposefully come together for prayer, encouragement, and refreshment while learning from best practices to enhance our knowledge and understanding. 

"You will be the same person in five years as you are today except for the people you meet and the books you read."

-Charlie "Tremendous" Jones

Short-takes will be offered on the 4th Tuesday of each month, January through October.

This Month's Book: The Gifts of Imperfection

What transforms this book from words on a page to effective daily practices are the ten guideposts to wholehearted living. The guideposts not only help us understand the practices that will allow us to change our lives and families, they also walk us through the unattainable and sabotaging expectations that get in the way.

Brené writes, “This book is an invitation to join a wholehearted revolution. A small, quiet, grassroots movement that starts with each of us saying, ‘My story matters because I matter.’ Revolution might sound a little dramatic, but in this world, choosing authenticity and worthiness is an absolute act of resistance.”
