Spiritual formation for leaders is framed in the pursuit of healthy leadership. Alexander first describes the importance of healthy leadership for integrity and longevity in fulfilling one's call under God. That has three constituent parts: spiritual formation, psycho-emotional healing, and personal growth. Alexander then focuses on spiritual formation: what that means; why it is critical for leaders; and how we 'do it'... with the heart motivation of learning to lead as Jesus would if he were you. 

Leadership in God's Kingdom is leading like Jesus led, which implies intentional spiritual formation toward Christlikeness.

We know that leadership takes its toll on marriage. There's nothing like ministry to test and expose weaknesses in marriage. The goal is healthy marriage, not only for personal fulfilment, but for integrity and longevity in leadership. Healthy marriage energises ministry and leadership. Dysfunctional marriage comes out in forms of dysfunctional leadership. 

Alexander & Gilli approach healthy marriage in leadership by defining love, the essence of the marriage bond in God. Then they unpack four stages of love in its development toward maturity in marriage. So, this seminar examines the four kinds of growth in life-long-love that matures us to love as God loves.
