We often speak about the pressures and heartbreaks of pastoral ministry. But we speak far less about its joys, privileges and eternal rewards.
Matt Fuller, Senior Minister of Christ Church Mayfair, joins us to discuss his new book, The Joyful Pastor (Despite Everything).
We talk about difficult sheep, false accusations, losing joy, practising thankfulness, avoiding burnout and returning daily to Christ.
And we explore something pastors rarely discuss: the reward promised by the Chief Shepherd.
“When the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the unfading crown of glory.” — 1 Peter 5:4
An honest and encouraging conversation for weary pastors.
