Confronting the Unique Challenges of Pastoral Ministry

About this book

Pastor and Bestselling Author Paul David Tripp Helps Church Leaders Diagnose and Cure Unhealthy Pastoral Culture

After traveling the world for many years and speaking at hundreds of churches of all kinds, Paul David Tripp is concerned about the state of pastoral culture. He is not only concerned about the spiritual life of the pastor but with the very people who train him, call him, relate to him, and restore him when necessary.  Dangerous Calling reveals the truth that the culture surrounding our pastors is spiritually unhealthy—an environment that actively undermines the well-being and efficacy of our church leaders and thus the entire church body. Here is a book that both diagnoses and offers cures for issues that impact every member and church leader, and gives solid strategies for fighting the war that rages not only in the momentous moments of ministry, but also in the mundane day-by-day life of every pastor. This edition includes study questions that prompt engaging discussion and reflection on each chapter.

  • Essential Insights for Church Leadership: Looks at the struggle of the pastor, but actively exhorts the culture that trains and supports him
  • A Great Resource for Small Groups: Now with study questions, this guide appeals to anyone who is serious about being part of a healthy church
  • Practical: Highlights a series of temptations that are unique to or intensified by pastoral ministry and gives biblical advice for dealing with each
