“Encompassing more than just the arena of pastoral care and visitation, this book is a helpful 'big picture' snapshot of the call and diverse responsibilities of the church pastor. ”

—Ministries Today

In our age of high-powered CEOs, pastors need encouragement in the biblical model of their calling to shepherd the flock of God. In this practical and concise addition to the Ministry Dynamics for a New Century series, David Wiersbe examines the role of shepherd in light of the duties of a pastor.

Through a brief, biblical survey, he highlights shepherds such as Abel, Moses, David, and Jesus, and underscores the vulnerable nature of sheep. Then he applies the principles of shepherding to the tasks of a pastor — building relationships, earning trust, listening, visiting, leading worship, and prayer.

For those wanting to provide quality shepherding care to God's people, this book offers helpful insight.
