Publisher Description: To oversee Christ's flock is 'a noble task' but also a difficult task. The responsibilities and expectations of the job are numerous and weighty. Skills in leadership and management, the ability to communicate effectively in a variety of settings, the need to be a competent listener and counsellor - these things and more are required of those who exercise pastoral oversight, even of a small congregation. And as pastors seek resources to assist them in their vocation, it is no wonder that many have found great benefit from the insights of the social sciences. The problem, however, is the seeming lack of connection between the doctrine and exegesis of the Scriptures on the one hand, and the theology and practice of ministry on the other. The contributors are Lionel Windsor, Peter Orr, Mark Thompson, David Peterson and Keith Condie. |
