The Secret
Power of Kindness
Greg’s brand new book (Summer of 2023) is the Amazon #1 Bestseller and #1 New Release. It has 45 endorsements, including 4 New York Times bestselling authors. The Foreword was written by New York Times bestselling author, Mark Batterson.
The old axiom is true: people don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care. We find ourselves in a cultural moment where people simply want to feel seen, heard, and loved. The good news? A little kindness goes a long way. It’s time for this overlooked and under-appreciated fruit of the Spirit to get its due.
Ready or not, be kind. – From the Preface. You can purchase the book HERE.

Strange Leadership
Greg’s third book is called Strange Leadership and it’s been called “an encyclopedia on innovation.” This 5 star book became an Amazon Bestseller two weeks before it’s official release date and has been featured on Pastors.com, ChurchLeaders.com, Catalyst, ChurchCentral, FaithVillage, XPastor.org, RonEdmondson.com, ExPastors.com and in Rick Warren’s newsletter.
Are you a leader in a Christian organization? Is your church, ministry, or business lacking innovation? Perhaps you’re experienced in trying new things and moving in new ways, but you haven’t ever tried anything strange. Truly innovative leaders are often considered strange. Don’t settle for everyday leadership; immerse yourself in Strange Leadership!
Greg gives 40 different ways the Bible teaches us to be strange leaders. Greg pulls from Scripture to illuminate these concepts and, from the words and writings of other leaders, to drive them home. Strange Leadership is practically an encyclopedia on the subject of innovation. Go HERE to check out the book’s website and download free resources for your team, including a Team Discussion Guide.
