Azure Wind

What might life at sea teach us about ministry? Over a seven week journey crossing the Gulf of Mexico on his sailboat, the author discovers lessons for life and leadership in the church. In the Spring, 2006, Dave Wasserman sailed his 31 foot sloop from Galveston, Texas to Isla Mujeres, Mexico, experiencing the open waters and life at the shoreline. He shares fifteen reflections on such topics as fear, passagemaking, shelling, and jumping ship. Each reflection addresses an important challenge facing today's church leaders.
