Pastors are tasked with the incredibly demanding job of caring for the spiritual, emotional, and, at times‚ physical needs of their people. While seminary is helpful preparation for many of the challenges pastors face, there’s far more to pastoral ministry than what can be covered in the classroom. Designed as a reference guide for nearly every situation a pastor will face, this comprehensive book by seasoned pastors Kent Hughes and Doug O’Donnell is packed full of biblical wisdom and practical guidance related to the reality of pastoral ministry in the trenches. From officiating weddings to conducting funerals to visiting the sick, this book will equip pastors and church leaders with the knowledge they need to effectively minister to their flocks, both within the walls of the church and beyond. Designed as a comprehensive handbook for pastoral ministry in the 21st centuryWritten by seasoned pastors and born out of practical ministry experienceTopics covered include pastoral counseling, hospital visitations, funerals, weddings, the sacraments, holiday services, public prayer, and congregational musicIncludes sample sermons, outlines, and notes for a variety of situations
