What should a true pastor look like, and what constitutes a faithful ministry? What should churches seek if they desire men after God’s own heart? In this uniquely English-American venture, a solid attempt is made to answer these questions. It draws paticularly on the example of the apostle Paul in his pastoral relation to the people of God. Colossians 1:24 – 2:5 is the focus of study. A well-structured and eminently searching book.
