Stepping Up!-Hardcover
: Discover The Power Of Your Position

Lakewood Church Pastor John "Johnny" McGowan shares the importance of embracing your "second in command" position so you can see the honor and purpose of SERVING UP. Pastor Johnny has been SERVING UP for many years, first as the aide to Lakewood founder John Osteen, and now to lead pastor Joel Osteen. Throughout his experience, Pastor Johnny has denied opportunities to branch out and form his own church, feeling strongly compelled that God wanted him right where he was: part of a movement that was larger than himself. He learned to truly embrace his supporting role and is flourished and fulfilled as a result. Now, Pastor Johnny shares his philosophy in SERVING UP. Incorporating stories from the Bible about people in the "second in command" position and how God has used them for a larger purpose, this book will guide you in serving with integrity, passion, and instinct for a success, and achieving a life that is favored by God. By joyfully approaching your current position, and stepping aside to let Him open doors, you will see the divine value of your role and the glory in SERVING UP.
