Doug Clay is the 13th general superintendent of the Assemblies of God, which explains the title of his most recent book —13: Leadership Is More than Luck. The book explores leadership principles and stories from Clay's predecessors in that office.

"As I studied the lives of our past general superintendents, I was inspired by their timeless insights and timely sensitivity to the Lord. Though each faced his own set of challenges, placing hope and trust in the Lord was a hallmark of each former leader," Clay writes.

"We have been called by God for this moment. If we will have the humility to learn from our history and the faith to press ahead, we will see the Lord's favor and anointing upon our Fellowship for decades, until he comes," Clay concludes

In this episode of the Influence Podcast, I talk to Clay about leadership principles and stories from his book, but also about the state of the Assemblies of God. I'm George P. Wood, executive editor of Influence magazine and your host.
