Foreword by Dr.
Ron Elmore,
Psy.d;
Author-Speaker
Over the years I have consistently encountered two types of people
in ministry--the prepared and the unprepared. Those who have been
prepared for ministry inevitably are able to minister effectively
as a result of their years of preparation. But for every one who
has been prepared, there's another who's not been adequately prepared,
and is, therefore, far less effective than they might otherwise
have been.
I have always thought that it would be tremendously useful if a
ministry guide existed that would point out the essential characteristics
vital to one’s success in serving; a simple guidebook offering
practical insight and inspiration for a life of extraordinary service.
Certainly,
such a book would be tailor-made for those who sincerely want to
serve but are clueless as to where to start. And, it would be no
less helpful to those who are presently serving and aiming to sharpen
their skill and minister even more effectively. Many point to the
Bible as that resource--and it is! But I’m sure all will agree
that we can greatly benefit from sound teaching that illuminates
the Bible’s profound truths and spurs us on to act on them.
This
was the catalyst for this book. While seasoned leaders may already
know what are the essential personal characteristics needed for
ministry and service, those humbly seeking an opportunity to serve
may not. Thus, there is a great need for such instruction. Kevin
Bond has provided just that.
His
concise, empowering book is aptly entitled, “A Servant's Guide
from a Servant's Heart: Ministry from A to Z." I pray that
will not only read it, but also apply each and every quality he’s
so richly detailed here.

I did read the book and found it to be very uplifting and right down my
alley. It applies not only to the Church ministry but certainly everyday
as I minister to people and with colleagues in health care in all aspects
of life. It was easy to read with applications that quite appropriate
and understandable.. Which alphabets applied to ME? They all did. Thank
you very much!

First, let me say thank you for writing such a blessed book. I really
enjoyed reading it and probably appreciated it more because I was able
to sit and listen to your heart in the workshop. Another fitting title
could have been 'A Servants Guide From the Heart of God." I was listening
to Bishop Kenneth Ulmer on TBN last week with Benny, and one of the things
He said is that "God is calling a generation to walk in His character"
and that " God is calling us back to holiness". Your book is right in
line with that. Derek Prince defines the holiness of God as "the essence
of what God is". In order to understand the essence of God, we have to
understand who God is and what He is like, especially since He said "be
ye holy, for I am Holy". I see the definition of that in the chapters
of your book: God is: Love, Kindness, Dependability, Gentleness, Patience,
Justice, etc.. I think this book is an outstanding tool to promote excellence
in ministry (in any capacity). May God give you uncommon favor and open
many doors of opportunity to share this word with the masses. May He plow
the ground of the hard hearted that are deceived into thinking that their
gifting is all that's required and cause this word to be planted. Thanks
for being a vessel in the Master's Hand. As I told you at the Workshop,
"We need more like you". Peace and Prosperity,

Mr. Bonds your book is EXCELLENT!!! Before I began reading aloud in the
worship ambiance, we (me & hubby) prayed that God will give us the receptive
hearts to receive the words of direction & instruction. I would like for
you to know chastening came along with that as we were discussing the
things that we can do better in & work on. We would just like to THANK
U for being that Servant that the Almighty one used in this time to minister
to our family. We pray many more blessings upon you & your gifts. Continue
to pray for us as we walk upright before our Father in heaven & become
those Servants that He is needing in this hour. GOD bless you Chief Levite
Love your Sister-In-Christ

From opening the mailbox this evening to reading the last page as I walked
out of Barnes & Nobles - Thank you! It was a "self evaluation" that I
needed. I thank God for the vision and for the things that he has birthed
from you. Sometimes, I pick up books and it is soo thick that I wonder
if I will gain the insight I need. The insight needed today; and not after
long periods of intermittent sessions of reading. Your book has transformed
me. It not only forced me to look at my weaknesses, but it also opened
my eyes to things I simply didn't think about. However, it was well worth
it! I just want to say thank you!

Dear Elder Bond, Thanks so much for autographing a copy for me. I heard
your interview on the Yolanda Adams Morning Show on 103.9 FM in Philadelphia
and knew that your book was the tool for us. Our pastor has been teaching
the leadership team about what true Christian leadership really means.
I was driving when I heard the show and then couldn’t remember the details.
I emailed the station and asked that they send me the title and the author
(all I could remember was Bond and Christian leadership). Praise God that
they followed through immediately and we will have the package before
Christmas. The Deaconess Ministry of Union Baptist Church will be using
your book for our study in 2008. Our music ministry and Pastor will also
receive a copies as gifts. May our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ continue
to bless you and the ministry He has gifted you to do. Your sister in
Christ

I just finished reading the entire book cover to cover and must tell anyone
considering picking it up...just do it. This is not a chest thumping or
name-dropping book of self aggrandizement or chest thumping. If you’re
looking for good ol’ church stuff, this isn’t the book for you. This book
is about service—true leadership and is a good life blue print for use
outside of ministry and in everyday life. Kudos to the Chief Musician
for providing a great, simple step book that gets right to the point from
the first pages. Shalom,

I Love The Book! Last century in the 80's and 90"s I read 2 decision-impacting
books specifically addressing leadership, "Exploring Worship, a practical
guide..." and "Jesus CEO ... for visionary leadership." I mention these
2 books because they were of the "go back to over and over" variety. I
think your book is a practical guide for visionary leadership in the 21st
century. Because this century the pendulum has swung way over in ministry
leadership so that success equals "super star" status, we have forgotten
that leaders are called to SERVE. Though your book can be read in one
sitting, it Must be re-read many times until we begin to reflect the characteristics
A-Z illuminated in each chapter. Namelesness - Oh my! I welcome your book
into its place beside my other decision-impacting literature. Both can
help to bring us back to a true place of balance in God's design. It's
a great book, a beautiful read, and a divinely timed release!

Kevin, I praise god for your life. I am deeply grateful to god for allowing
me to receive the fruit of just one of your gifts. I don't know how long
you've been constructing this piece, but I declare it has definitely convicted,
humbled, transformed, and renewed my commitment to god as a servant. Kevin,
I’ve wished to be under your wings of experience as an apprentice/student
and hopefully work alongside with you, but through this book, I discovered
the heart of a man who is about the business of god, to empower, & serve
the people of his kingdom. well done, servant well done!! Thanks Kevin,
I am committed to serve him!!

"It's through tears that I write this. This book had me crying tears,
of joy because it truly ministered to my spirit. It had me jumping and
dancing for joy because it reaffirmed God's word for me, and the purpose
He has placed in me. I have to thank you for your obedience to God in
writing this book. I thank God that He blessed His people with a servant
named Kevin Bond.
