I read this book years ago, and I decided it was time I revisited it. Jefferson makes the biblical case for what a Pastor/Shepherd is and how he should be properly oriented and motivated through positive and negative examples. This is an older book, and in some ways feels out of touch with what my generation of pastors face. However, there are plenty of timeless truths on the book that are sure to cause a healthy reflection. Occasionally I felt like Jefferson was a little too negative.

I read this book years ago, and I decided it was time I revisited it. Jefferson makes the biblical case for what a Pastor/Shepherd is and how he should be properly oriented and motivated through positive and negative examples.

I am nuts about books. I read on all kinds of topics. I attempt to review each book I read for the sake of my own enrichment as well as conversation starters with others.
