Tearing down the old standard of the ideal leader, Paul Borthwick challenges young people to rise up and fill the growing leadership vacuum in the Christian world today.
The need is great for young men and women who will rise to the challenge--in the face of great opportunities and great obstacles-to be obedient to the call of leadership.
Paul Borthwick asserts that leadership is not just reserved for those with the right education, abilities, status or background. Rather, God is calling all young Christians who have the vision and responsibility to persevere, to fill this growing leadership vacuum.

Paul Borthwick is senior consultant for Development Associates International and teaches missions at Gordon College in Wenham, Massachusetts. He dedicates himself to mobilizing others to world missions through a speaking, writing, and resource ministry. Previously he served for more than twenty years on the staff of Grace Chapel in Lexington, Massachusetts- -- first as youth pastor and then as minister of missions. He is the author of 'A Mind for Missions' (NavPress), 'How to Be a World-Class Christian' (Victor), and several other books and Bible studies.
