Publisher's Synopsis
The Crown and the Cross: Leadership Principles from Kings of the Bible
By Prophetess Sophia Yolanda
Step into the courts of ancient kings and unlock timeless leadership strategies for today's boardrooms, ministries, and movements.
In The Crown and the Cross, Prophetess Sophia Yolanda masterfully weaves together the triumphs, failures, wisdom, and spiritual insight of biblical kings to reveal powerful leadership principles for modern-day executives, ministry leaders, and change agents. With over 30 years of executive strategy experience and a prophetic mantle rooted in biblical truth, the author explores the lives of figures like David, Solomon, Hezekiah, Esther, and even Jesus Christ-the Servant King Himself.
This compelling guide does more than draw parallels between Scripture and leadership theory-it challenges leaders to balance the weight of authority (the crown) with the demands of humility, integrity, and spiritual alignment (the cross). Each chapter delivers practical insights, relatable case studies, and transformational lessons that help leaders grow in wisdom, strategy, resilience, and influence.
