the eye of the pastor: 11 stories you should have been told before you started ministry

＂The Eye Of The Pastor＂ gives you glimpse of what real life ministry is all about. Pastor Rick uses true real life stories from his decades of ministry to provide young leaders with information they may not have picked up in bible school or seminary. Seasoned pastors will also gain information that will encourage their hearts and challenge them to think beyond what they are doing to why they are doing it. Some of the stories are humorous, some are serious, and some will have you saying, ＂I don’t believe that actually happened.＂ Ministry is not always about one success after another. You will walk with Pastor Rick through both his failures and success stories, and he will challenge you to think about what you would have done in the same situation. God has an abundant life He wants to give to you, but so often its rejected in the name of doing ministry. The topics covered are 1) Temptations, 2) Humility, 3) God’s Timing, 4) People Leaving The Church, 5) Funeral Surprises, 6) Helping Others, 7) God’s Sovereignty, 8) Giving, 9) The Homogeneous Church, 10) God’s People, and 11) Church Growth. The book is easy to read and should be a must read for anyone thinking about going into ministry. Your purchase of this book will help to sponsor a child in Compassion International.
