“Getting people from point A to point B” was the uncomplicated definition of visionary leadership that Bill Hybels (former pastor of Willow Creek Community Church) used to use. For us to get to point B we need to understand the reality of our point A first. From this reality, we must see a picture of a better future – our point B. Prophetic leadership is all about this process, but also the process of communicating it so it appeals to the imagination. Once we can imagine it, we can plan and develop processes to get there. This is how prophetic leaders imagine and engineer (imagineer) their way to a preferred future.
This book encourages us to embark on a journey of imagineering a better future, whilst heeding the timeless wisdom of the prophets, learning to see and understand our realities in the light of God’s word and then to imagine and shape the destiny that beckons us all.

The completion of this book on ‘Prophetic Leadership: Imagineering the future’, testifies to Johan’s maturity as a leader, his understanding of hearing from God, the process of communicating the received words from God, and the craft of using poetic imagery to create the future. This book is a must-read for leaders who want to excel in leadership that serves God and his church.
