Abstract

The purpose of this special issue is to highlight the importance of Christian leadership and to stress that the context within which leadership is reflected upon and exercised is important. All of the articles discuss aspects of leadership from a Christian theological perspective. We believe that an ongoing debate on leadership is important given the vast potential for good leadership to have a positive impact on the world. The contribution of Christians to this debate is vital, since people in all countries of the world suffer because of malign and destructive forms of leadership.
