Discription

Preventing Ministry Failure combines an updated version of James Guthrie’s A Humble Acknowledgement of the Sins of the Ministry with extracts from James Durham’s Commentary on Revelation in order to emphasize the necessity of pastoral holiness and the encouragement Christ provides to serve Him well. The result is a guide for pastors to openly discuss their common failings that also holds out hope for putting things right. Beyond updating the language, the editors add Bible verses to assist in meditation as well as questions to stimulate reflection and discussion. Here is abundant yet succinct material to promote personal conviction and examination, as well as help, encouragement, and counsel for ministers to shine amid the prevailing darkness.
