"This is a compelling and practical book that will help develop
great spiritual leaders to meet the challenges of leadership as the
church seeks to bring the gospel to a changed world."
-Insights magazine (Sept. 2008)
"Practicing Greatness is a hard-hitting leadership book, not
just a collection of inspirational thoughts."
--from the Foreword by Ken Blanchard, author of The
One-Minute Manager and Lead Like Jesus: Lessons from the
Greatest Leadership Role Model of All Time
"The depth and breadth of wisdom in this book is just short of
unbelievable. Good leaders aspiring to be great leaders will do
well to read this book and allow it to probe and shape their
lives."
--Bill Easum, Easum, Bandy & Associates
"I have always been challenged by Reggie McNeal's
'right on' insights. And this book is packed with
'right on' insights for any leader wanting to move from
good to great."
--Robert Lewis, pastor and men's fraternity founder,
Fellowship Bible Church, Little Rock, Arkansas
"Someone once taught me a powerful lesson: 'If you are
without discipline, you are without power.' In this
revitalizing work, Reggie has tapped into a power source for all
leaders--disciplines. Grab hold of this book and begin a newly
charged life today!"
--Wayne Cordeiro, New Hope Christian Fellowship O'ahu,
Honolulu, Hawaii; author of Culture Shift: Transforming Your
Church from the Inside Out
"We owe Greatness to God. Reggie McNeal challenges us to this
standard and gives us some practical 'how-tos' in this
clear and compelling new book. I recommend this book for all who
aspire to a meaningful Halftime and Life II."
