A standard work in seminaries and a reliable guide for clergy in many denominations for over thirty years, The Christian Pastor has been revised to include up-to-date research on the role of pastors in contemporary life. In examining today's changing ministry, Wayne Oats makes use of recent psychological interpretations, and at the same time preserves the biblical and theological emphases of earlier editions.
This book was a required read for my college class, Christian Vocation and Call. It has great insights on the role of a minister's spiritual life, his personal life and his minstry. Blending knoweldge and experience, Oates paints a full picture of the pathway of life for one in ministry. His points are well thought out and his advice practical. This book is a great idea for any young minister to add to his library. You will consult it and use it time after time.
