“[Agape Leadership] has challenged me more than any other book I’ve read in about a year, and it’s just packed with helpful, timely material…. Despite being a short and fast read, Agape Leadership is a difficult one because it’s so convicting…. Read this book and be transformed by the example of the man Spurgeon called “the saintliest man I ever knew.”

— Aaron Armstrong of Blogging Theologically

“I will be honest in that I have never heard of Robert C. Chapman until this book came across my desk…. In a day and age of countless heroes, there are many who go unnoticed or remain unknown. It is usually these heroes that we must seek to emulate whenever we do seek to emulate another man. This book, which can be read in under an hour, should be read by everyone who calls on Christ as Lord. In so doing, you will be challenged to arrange your life in such a way that you are finding Christ to be your greatest and first love.”

— Terry Delaney, Christian Book Notes
