It's time to quit scratching the surface in life! Examining the spiritual journey of a risk-taker named Elisha, this book will help you recognize and break away from cyclical or seasonal activities leading to complacency, weariness, barrenness and lack of productivity in your life. Regrettably, many "scratch the surface" in all they do. Never willing to "go deep," their cyclical and futile attempts to reap harvests translate into limited productivity or even premature spoiling of goods. This will not be the case for you! Now is your time for breakthrough! It is time to quit retracing your steps year after year in the same fields which only yield during certain seasons. Now is your time to quit "scratching the surface" and go deep into the plans and activities God has for you which lead to production of fruit which remain in and out of season! Only as you begin taking steps to go deeper in the things of God will you experience true breakthroughs and deliverance. Every step of this journey will lead to a strengthening of your faith and success for your family, ministry and career.

Is it possible some religious leaders have "lost touch" with members of the churches or ministries they serve in efforts to achieve church growth or organizational success? Are religious leaders more apt to engage in codependent behavior as there is a strong desire to please others and a need to be accepted? Interestingly, the author of this book discovered leaders who continuously share their values and beliefs with their followers are less likely to engage in bad leadership behavior and practices. This book is a must read for anyone desirous of improving leadership effectiveness and inspiring active followership in for-profit or not-for-profit organizations. Written with church leadership at heart, the principles in this book are a must read for any "religious leader" (minister, pastor, priest, bishop, overseer, prelate, church officer, board member) or anyone else involved with leadership development or is serious about providing the best service to attendees, congregants, customers, or members.
