Dr. Ernest Davis blends memoir and leadership philosophy in this faith-centered exploration of servant-leadership. Drawing on his path from the streets of South Central Los Angeles to conversion, marriage, and a doctorate, he shows how the example of Jesus Christ—amplified by figures like Martin Luther King Jr., Nelson Mandela, Frederick Douglass, and Booker T. Washington—teaches leading through love, empathy, and service. Each chapter examines a characteristic of servant-leadership, offering hope to anyone striving to lead from the margins.
- A rare LDS book that centers a Black convert's journey from LA street life to faith and a doctorate
- Bridges civil rights history (MLK, Mandela, Douglass) with gospel-centered servant-leadership
- Turns Robert Greenleaf's leadership framework into a devotional, Christ-centered path
- An underdog memoir of homelessness, football, and redemption that will resonate with anyone leading from the margins
“When asked about his education and qualifications for leadership, Frederick Douglass enthusiastically replied, "My degree is written on my back."”
Perfect for an adult Latter-day Saint interested in leadership development, civil rights history, and an inspiring conversion memoir that centers a Black convert's experience.
