This book will make you certain about what the Christian message is; and what it is not. It will bring home to you the Christian messengers often under-rated responsibilities and how to readily fall on their right side. You will acquire a rational approach to accomplishing your objective as a messenger of Christ through reading this book. This book will alert you to popular errors that are quietly creeping into even the most conservative church audiences. It will teach you how to classify your church, and therefore make you see the urgent spiritual remedies required. You will understand the dynamics of how churches fare well or fail by the Lords biblically revealed yardstick. High-end spiritual poisons do take longer than one generation to gestate; so that the arrival of their ill-effects often take the new leaders in place by surprise. However, this book will show you a simple scriptural way to know spiritual poisons at first contact. Many books give dozens of steps to take in order to accomplish desirable objectives, but this one will avail you of simple, easy to remember, but often overlooked principles that will save you from deadly and pervasive hazards of preachers.

Preachers often feel stuck when met with quickly shifting and dense media topics that flood the headlines. If and when they determine it is appropriate to address issues that arise in the news cycle, they are often at a loss for how to speak about them from the pulpit. When preachers understand that a responsibility to sustain life is embedded in the purposes of preaching, they discover greater fluidity between the everyday world, the biblical text, and preaching itself. Preaching the Headlines reframes preaching as an ongoing conversation between the modern world and the world of the Bible, exploring where the divides between the two may be less rigid than we often acknowledge. The preacher uses what they know about life as a bridge to the text, while life in the text provides the bridge back to faith in the contemporary world. The goal of the book is to help preachers do theological reflection on the everyday world as an integral part of sermon development. The process offered in this book is not a substitute for basic methods of sermon development nor a model of exegesis for preaching. Preachers will use this process as a supplement alongside their current method of sermon preparation. Before the preacher can ever translate the meaning embedded in the headlines, they have to learn more about the topics they seek to preach about. They do this by digging behind the headlines and expanding their own resources beyond theological traditions alone. This work is done in order to think earnestly about how faith might spur transformative action in our world for more just ways of living together.

James P. Osterhaus offers pastors tangible and much-needed advice to help them at work and in their personal lives—advice that they do not often hear in seminary. More and more, men and women who minister find themselves depressed. Their marriages are often in trouble. Their families are negatively affected. Often, they have few if any close friends. Over the years, Osterhaus has coached and counseled hundreds of these ministers from various traditions on four continents. As he sat with ministers who have been nearly crushed by the burdens of ministry, he came to learn that the average training of ministers across the globe is woefully deficient in the very areas that allow ministers to avoid many of the pitfalls. This guide is a result of those countless conversations. Avoiding Pastoral Pitfalls is an attempt to fill some of the void left in the training of pastors. It offers down-to-earth, practical guidance in areas of ministry that are often neglected: understanding yourself (both strengths and weaknesses), what effective leadership looks like, the complicated organizational makeup of the church, how to deal with conflict effectively, how to make sense of your governing board, and how to both enter a new ministry and leave a ministry effectively.

Both pastors and local churches in today's America are facing unprecedented challenges. Church attendance continues to decline, with the average evangelical church now at 80. The reasons are multi- faceted--COVID-19, a growing anti-Christian sentiment, and of course, Satan, who is the Church's most formidable enemy. However, many leave local churches due to in-house issues that often go unidentified and overlooked. Monday Morning Preacher discusses forty potential reasons, most of them not talked about in Bible schools or seminaries. Pastors are often left to navigate troubled waters alone and unsure. Churches in general need a heads-up regarding the many potentially problematic issues that surface, and that precipitate back door exits. Like Monday morning quarterbacks, who review their post- game strategies, pastors need to revisit their Sunday morning service on Monday to celebrate their wins, and to identify potential in-house issues that need wise and righteous attention. To identify and righteously confront these issues will mean healthier churches, where perpetuity is assured. Every pastor--inexperienced or seasoned--can benefit from Monday Morning Preacher and hopefully avoid some of the pitfalls that confront all pastors at some time during their ministry. The chapters are brief and insightful, all followed by questions that provide additional food for thought. Pertinent observations and solutions are based on churches of less than two hundred. However, all pastors, other church leaders, and congregants can benefit from these insights that follow forty-three years of pastoral ministry. The evangelical world needs to read Monday Morning Preacher!

A man who's been transformed by Christ and desires to preach the gospel might say he feels called to be a pastor. This personal conviction, while heartfelt, doesn't acknowledge important, challenging steps necessary to be a qualified leader. So where should full-time ministry begin? In The Path to Being a Pastor, Bobby Jamieson explains why it's better to emphasize "aspiration" over "calling" as men pursue the office of elder and encourages readers to make sure they are pastorally gifted before considering the role. He shares from his own eleven-year experience preparing to be a pastor by walking potential leaders through different stages of ministry training, from practical steps—such as cultivating godly ambition and leadership, observing healthy churches, and mastering Scripture—to personal advice on building a strong family and succeeding in seminary. Emphasizing the importance of prayer, godly counsel, and immersion in the local church, Jamieson encourages men to ask Am I qualified? instead of Am I called? when considering a life in ministry.
