Vision is the insight God provides to instruct you and direct your paths. And unless you have that clear picture--from Him of where you're headed, your chances of a successful journey are severely limited, at best.

From the Back Cover:

In this new edition of a modern classic, George Barna defines vision as the “clear mental image of a preferable future imparted by God to His chosen servants based upon an accurate understanding of God, self and circumstances.” The writer of Proverbs adds that without this clear image of the future, people suffer—wandering in circles and in desperate need of a Godappointed leader to point the way forward. But how exactly do leaders catch the clear vision of God’s future? In The Power of Vision, Barna offers practical, proven tools for capturing, casting and implementing God’s vision for your ministry. Pointing to the examples of visionaries both ancient and modern, he uncovers patterns and principles that will help you understand, communicate and accomplish the unique vision God has in store for your life and church. In the process, you will gain insight into your own giftedness and motivations, get perspective on your ministry’s history and condition, and draw closer to the God who has chosen you to catch His vision.
