What this book offers is a chance for church leaders-and anyone desiring to serve as a church leader-to enjoy some personal mentoring at the feet of the Apostle Paul.
The Apostle Paul, who was undoubtedly the Lord's most fruitful apostle (1 Cor. 15:10), gives us profound insight into:
¿ Developing a Scripturally elevated sense of the importance of Church leadership.
¿ Understanding the Biblical function of church leaders (both the what and the how of their role in shepherding Christ's flock).
¿ Overcoming crisis, temptation, criticism, and the many other challenges of ministry.
¿ Understanding the spiritual warfare of ministry and church leadership.
¿ Learning how to be on guard to preserve one's health and the health of the church against spiritual attacks.
The church today is in a critical state and in much need of strong, healthy, biblical leadership.
