What to Look for in a Pastor: A Guide for Pastoral Search Committees (Ministry and Mission) (Ministry Mission)

This book is all about helping churches find the right man for their pulpit. It is also a book that is useful for pastors who desire to keep the right balance between preaching and other shepherding responsibilities. This book is designed to assist pastoral search committees by discussing the issues that surround six fundamental questions: Can he preach effectively? What else should he do? Is he qualified? Is he theologically sound? How does his practical theology compare to his written theology? And lastly, how do we find this guy? Biblically based answers to these questions will help any search committee define what they should be looking for and how they should prayerfully consider candidates.
