Shepherding, Counseling, and Sustainability
Product Description
Tackling the complex and intertwined issues of shepherding, counseling, and establishing believers in the faith, this encyclical addresses the massive fragmentation of these concepts in churches today and sets forth the call to “return to the way of Christ and His Apostles” in understanding and applying the transforming power of the gospel to life rebuilding as well as deep psychological problems. Additionally, this encyclical lays out the importance of a well-trained eldership and returning the church to the center of the pastoral care process. It proposes a taxonomy and standards for training church leaders today, to prepare them for this vital shepherding role.
