, 2023
Overview
Pastoral ministry is a difficult, demanding, and overwhelming vocation. Attrition rates for pastors are at an all-time high, and the cultural and interpersonal strain is only increasing. At the same time, the moral failings and hypocrisy of high profile Christian leaders cause many pastors to question their callings. Can anything be done to alleviate the pressures of pastoral ministry?
This course explores what it might look like for pastors in the American church to replace the faulty models of CEOs and celebrities and return to the path of Jesus as the example for pastoral ministry. Join Dr. Mark Quanstrom as he draws on over 35 years of pastoral ministry, helping congregations to follow the pattern of Jesus.
