Publisher's Synopsis
Facing the widespread experience of pastors feeling "burn-out" and disillusionment in their calling, this book aims to help church leaders to improve the quality of their ministries and their lives. It explores the vital aspects of ministries, including the professional pastor, the effective leader, the charismatic preacher, the missionary strategist, the senior caregiver and the exemplary pilgrim. The final chapetr questions the meanings of the terms "success" and "failure" in ministry, and looks constructively at maintaining spiritual vitality.
