"Reading [Ralph Lebold's] story helps to clarify the influences and decisions that resulted in the [Mennonite] Church as we now know it. While it is humbling for leaders to own responsibility for both their successes and failures, good stories and good story tellers wrestle honestly with these realities. Such is what we find in this book." - From the foreword by James M. Lapp, Senior Ministry Consultant, Franconia Mennonite Conference
"Ralph Lebold's journey has profoundly impacted the calling and equipping of church leaders in Ontario and beyond. His call, preparation, vision and service fostered development of new programs in an era when pastoral leadership styles and demands changed dramatically." - Herb Schultz, retired MCEC Pastor and Conference Minister
"It is delightful to get inside Ralph's head to see what shaped him, and to glimpse how his thinking on leadership shaped his ministry and that of the Mennonite Church. He has a remarkable capacity to 'read' both individuals and local congregation, to comprehend local nuances within the context of the wider church, and to interpret scripturally how best to facilitate church growth." - Doris Gascho, retired MCEC Pastor and Conference Minister
