Overview

The first in a series of monographs for servant leaders on difficult leadership challenges common to all types of organizations. Using historical, personal and Biblical examples, My Betrayer examines betrayal by the leader, betrayal by a follower, and perceived betrayal and how to turn betrayal into an opportunity for growth. Trust is essential for people living or working together-whether in a family, a business, or a church. It is often the breakdown of trust that, like a cancer, eats the heart out of organizations. Betrayal is a deliberate breaking of trust and one of the most hurtful actions that one person can inflict upon another. This is especially true when it involves a loved one or close associate. My Betrayer will teach you the steps to take when you encounter betrayal, especially when it comes from a loved one, and how to turn from crippling emotional pain to victory through forgiveness.
