SynopsisAfter traveling the globe and speaking to thousands of churches worldwide, Paul David Tripp has discovered a serious problem within pastoral culture. He is not only concerned about the spiritual life of the pastor, but also with the very community of people that trains him, calls him, relates to him, and restores him if necessary. Dangerous Calling reveals the truth that the culture surrounding our pastors is spiritually unhealthy--an environment that actively undermines the wellbeing 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 member and church leader, and gives solid strategies for fighting the all-important war that rages in our churches today., Recognizing the widespread struggles facing pastors today, Tripp exposes and exhorts the cultures that train and support our church leaders so that they can lead well and our churches can be healthy.
A pastor to pastor's book. A well thought out book about the challenges that face pastors on a daily basis. The writer seeks to get the pastor who is reading to see how much importance there is to seeing who we are in light of scripture. Not a book to chastise, but to give a pastor food for serious consideration.
A excellent book to read for those who want to understand what God wants from them.
This book is written for those who are entering the ministry but it has so much more on relationships and overcoming shortfalls in our lives. I really enjoyed reading it.
