Leadership Promises for Every Day

John C. Maxwell · 2022
🎙 Narrated by Henry O. Arnold
64/100
👎 Skip It

Maxwell condenses a lifetime of leadership teaching into 365 daily devotional entries and the result is coherent and Scripture-grounded — but it is condensation, not new contribution, and readers familiar with his earlier books will find most of it familiar. The modular format means you can drop in anywhere, which suits devotional use, but the runtime is very long for the depth delivered. Henry O. Arnold's measured narration fits the format well, giving each short entry appropriate weight.

🎙 Narration: good Henry O. Arnold's measured delivery gives each short daily entry appropriate gravity; the format rewards the narration style even if the content is familiar Maxwell ground.
