The Care of Souls
Book Review
Books on pastoral care and pastoral ministry are a crowded space. There are a lot of them. However, I do not consider this as a bad thing. I suppose occasionally it can be if a book is especially weak in presentation, but that seems pretty rare. I found Senkbeil's book enjoyable to read. He comes from a Lutheran background, the content wasn't especially Lutheran, focusing more on the big ideas of pastoral ministry. His approach is sometimes more folksy, but other times he is dealing with the lates trends and struggles in the church.
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.
You never know what you will find in an attic! Usually there is a hodgepodge of things buried under dust.
Most of what is included here are notes to myself. The majority of folks will not find interest in these posts.
