Called to Pastor

<p>In Ephesians Paul said And He gave some as apostles and some as prophets and some as evangelists and some as pastors and teachers (Eph. 4:11). From this verse we understand that being a pastor and teacher is a gift from God. Becoming a pastor is not done when a person so desires but when he is given the Gift of the Pastorate. This book is being written especially for those who are being called into the pastorate. I hope that this book will benefit young pastors or even experienced pastors who may not have had the benefit of a wise counselor. The basic purpose of the book is to explain the calling preparation and role of a pastor. I also think that this book could help church members understand the role of a pastor and what being a pastor entails.</p>
