Effective Pastoring

Bok av Bill Lawrence
"e;A great deal of confusion exists today as to what pastors are to be,"e; Lawrence writes. "e;Are they chaplains, CEO's, preachers, managers, or counselors? Paul gave us the answer long ago: They are to be equippers, disciple-makers."e; Just as the great artist Michelangelo took a chipped and flawed piece of marble and transformed it into a masterful sculpture of David, so does a pastor with his flock. "e;This is pastoring"e;, writes Lawrence, "e;serving as sculptors of souls."e;
