The Imperfect Pastor by Zack Eswine

The Imperfect Pastor by Zack Eswine

Dear Pastor,

Desire burns within you. You’ve trained and dreamt of doing large things in famous ways as fast as you can for God's glory. But pastoral work keeps requiring your surrender to small, mostly overlooked things over long periods of time.

You stand at a crossroads. Jesus stands with you. You were never meant to know everything, fix everything, and be everywhere at once. That's his job, not yours.

So what now? Let the apprenticeship begin.

• A behind-the-scenes look at pastoral ministry, written to encourage ministry leaders
• Author shares candid stories and lessons drawn from over 20 years of ministry experience
• Examines both the theological and practical aspects of ministry
• A revised and expanded edition of Sensing Jesus featuring a new title and cover
