Your message has changed the church in this nation.                                                               -Dr Ronald Diaz l  San Jose, Costa Rica

You have been with our leadership team and I just want to thank you personally for the spot on input that you gave about teambuilding.  It was a much needed presentation and it made me aware of how important the original basics in Jesus are.                                                                                     -Sarel Visser.

Phillip Underwood:

Leadership is influence. - John Maxwell

Influence (in·flu·ence) noun- the capacity or power of persons or things to be a compelling force on or produce effects on the actions,behavior, opinions, etc., of others.

Is everyone a leader?  Yes, in some way or place.

What was the greatest leader of all time?  Was it Thomas Jefferson? Napoleon? Atilla the Hun?  Pharaoh?
Buddha Shakyamuni? Winston Churchill? Muhammad? Franklin Roosevelt?  Mahatma Gandhi? John F Kennedy?  Ronald Reagan?

What constitutes greatness?  The scope of influence?  The closest followers? The longest tenure of influence?

What if it what constitutes great leadership is the change factor?

The 'change factor' is the promise of the influencer and the effect on the influenced.  As a leader, what are you promising and what effect is it having on those you are influencing? 

There has never been a leader in this history of humanity that promised to effect eternity for the follower and also be their partner to the extent they became one with the leader except Jesus Christ.

So, if the influence of Jesus Christ existed previous to his birth, continued through a relatively short life, changed the trajectory of history and continues to promise life change, life purpose and eternal destiny, might be considered the greatest leader of all time, and even beyond time?

Possible.

If you would like to be a leader in the mold of Jesus Christ, which he invites and promotes, contact your new coach, mentor and friend, Phillip Underwood.  He has The Change Factor that can change not only your life but the lives of those you lead in the way of Jesus.

What are people saying about Phillip Underwood and the epiK journey?

Phil Underwood is one of my favorite thinkers. Others who feel the same have joined me in convincing Phil that keeping himself to himself and a few others is just not the way to live.  So, now churches and ministries locally and globally have the opportunity to partner with Phil in discovering old pathways that lead to new understanding in following Jesus. Forget Church-ianity, move beyond Christianity, and discover Jesus again ....for the first time.

Phil Underwood is one of the most amazing followers of Jesus I’ve ever met. Not only is he an inspiring teacher, but also  a phenomenal person to be around with. His understanding of what it means to follow Christ faithfully today is fresh, provocative and life-changing!                                                                          - Stephan Joubert, South Africa  (www.ekerk.co.za)



Some teachers teach out of books, some leaders lead from a manual, some friends connect through obligation.  Phil Underwood is different - because he is REAL.  Phil teaches out of his heart, sharing real life experiences; he leads out of his character - one of a servant; and he is a friend out of love and honesty.  Just being with the man is uplifting - because he is alive with passion for Jesus. - Dries Lombaard, South Africa (www.africanmosaic.org)
