In Beauty That Saves, Brian Zahnd challenges the church’s instinct to rely on argument or political leverage in a skeptical culture. Drawing from Scripture, church history and Christian aesthetics, he points to the cross as the defining form of Christian beauty. Rather than asking only what is true or good, Zahnd urges leaders to consider whether their posture reflects the cruciform love of Christ. For those weary of culture wars and power struggles, this article offers a different path forward. Read Beauty That Saves in the Spring 2026 issue of AVAIL Journal at www.AVAILJournal.com.

Repentance is more than acknowledging failure. It is the willingness to examine our motives and realign our lives with the values we claim to believe. When leaders approach repentance with humility, they invite God to reshape their thinking and their decisions.

Many leaders attempt to grow through trial and error, hoping experience alone will produce better results. Coaching accelerates that process by providing perspective, accountability and practical guidance from someone who has walked the path before. When leaders invest in coaching, potential begins to translate into measurable progress and the vision God placed in their heart moves closer to reality.

Whitefield’s regret was not lack of influence, but lack of multiplication. Addition impresses in the moment. Multiplication sustains beyond the leader. Systems that develop leaders create impact that continues long after the founder steps away.
