On the Wall with Sword and Trowel (e-book) (used book) | bookbook.eu

Description

Future pastors and servant-leaders are taught the much-needed ""tools of the trade""--the principles of hermeneutics, how to exegete a passage, put a sermon together, conduct a wedding, manage a funeral, oversee administrative meetings, and much more. On the Wall with Sword and Trowel is a reminder that no amount of professional training, educational instruction, and/or personal counsel could adequately ready an individual for the crucible of ministry--the confusion, pressures, heartbreak, disappointments, discouragements, and more. There is plenty more to learn about genuine faith, dealing with doubts and fears, the destructive nature of sin, the healing/transforming power of grace, the overwhelming demands of ministry, the necessity for authenticity, the sanctity of marriage and family, the joy of serving, and the weight of duty and responsibility--all issues every pastor/servant will face and must face.
