Dangerous Calling: Confronting the Unique Challenges of Pastoral Ministry

By: Paul David Tripp

After traveling the world for many years and speaking in hundreds of churches of all kinds, Paul David Tripp is concerned about the state of pastoral culture. He's concerned about not only the spiritual life of the pastor, but about the people who train him, call him, relate to him, and restore him if necessary. Dangerous Calling reveals that the culture surrounding our pastors is spiritually unhealthy - an environment that actively undermines the well-being and efficacy of our church leaders, and thus the entire church body. Here is a book that both diagnoses and offers cures for issues that impact every church member and leader, and gives solid strategies for fighting the war that rages not only in the most memorable moments of ministry, but also in the mundane day-to-day life of every pastor.
