Teacher, Leader, Shepherd-The New Testament Pastor

By: Dr. Robert Picirilli

Create a greater appreciation for, and application of, the biblical teaching about the role of the pastor

 

This book focuses on an understanding of what the Bible has to say to or about the pastor and his ministry. The author gives a solid treatment of the New Testament passages that specifically speak to the role of the pastor. This work is informative and challenging to any new candidate for pastoral ministry of a veteran pastor.

The author presents an exegetical approach to the New Testament passages that includes practical exposition of the implications of the biblical text. Such a study is beneficial to any pastor—whether a veteran or new candidate for pastoral ministry. The work is informing and challenging, helping to point the pastor’s understanding in the right direction. The author does not offer chapters on each passage, but presents a more thematic approach, a succession of chapters on various aspects of the pastor’s call, qualifications, and role. Yet, the discussions are entirely grounded in exegesis of several passages. At the beginning of the book the passages are listed, together with a brief exegetical outline and a pointer to the chapters that will give more attention to them.
