Any vision that underestimates the importance of leadership transition is incomplete. After all, God’s purposes have longer shelf lives than His leaders. Dancing with Cinderella outlines several core principles drawn from Jeff Harlow's leadership transition as the senior pastor of a church of over 3000 members. It serves to help other leaders navigate the organizational, relational, and emotional details of a leadership transition without losing momentum. It doesn’t matter if you’re the leader of a small or large church, old or plant church, traditional or contemporary church, obscure or iconic church; an unhealthy leadership transition hurts people and cripples mission.Jeff's story will help a leader, the leadership teams, and the members of a church think through the principles of transition as they prepare for the exit of a current pastor and the entrance of their new leader. This book addresses many of the questions that a transition raises:• Why are transitions so hard?• What is really at the heart of the transition?• How do the objectives of a leader change after the transition starts?• How do departing leaders define future boundaries?In these pages you can discover how to do transition right, so you don’t have to figure out why it went wrong.

AFTER THE PREPPING YEARS OF YOUR YOUTH AND THE BUILDING YEARS OF EARLY ADULTHOOD, WHAT PLANS DOES GOD HAVE FOR YOU IN THE 3RD STAGE OF LIFE?\nGod has a plan for every season and stage of your life. He knows the plan(s) He has for you, and those plans slowly unfold and compound according to His perfect timing and infinite resourcefulness.\nThis same pattern is found in the creation of the universe. Rather than lay out all creation in a single instant, He paced Himself and sequentially built upon His work. So He is with His children. He gradually transforms us to be more and more like Christ, and He does so year by year, season by season, and stage by stage, until our final breath – and beyond. From glory to glory.\nThe Sacred Switch outlines this divine process and your role in it. It illustrates how God, in His perfect timing, will flip a switch deep within you and develop you from one stage of life to the next. And for those entering the 3rd Stage of Life, it will guide you to recognize and appreciate how resilient, mysterious, intricate, and beautiful His plan(s) truly are as you make the subtle shift from grabbing to giving.
