Mastering Ministry: Key Principles for Every Pastor

It seems nothing completely prepares you to be a pastor. Education and training certainly help, but some things you simply must learn through the trial and error of personal experience. Or do you?
Gleaned from real-world experiences, Mastering Ministry was written with today’s pastorates in mind. Within its pages you will: 

Discover seven ministry-defining values to move from floundering to flourishing;
Learn practical time management strategies to flatten the frenzied pace; and 
Explore over 30 ministry-related topics to face difficult issues with finesse.

While most traditional pastoral resources assume a one-pastor- one-church model, Mastering Ministry recognizes pastors today are often responsible for multiple congregations and includes pointers from the author’s book The Multi-Church Pastor: A Manual for Training Leadership in a Multi- Church Setting.

Whether you are a new or seasoned pastor of a single congregation or several, you will find Mastering Ministry to be a valuable resource as you impact your community for Christ.

Philip E. Morrison has a heart for equipping under-resourced pastors. After moving to Kenya 25 years ago, he became a lecturer at Moffat Bible College. At the college, he became passionate about equipping pastors with limited resources who are responsible for multiple congregations. As a result, he founded The Multi-Church Pastor Institute to mentor and train these pastors. 

He is pursuing a Doctor of Ministry from Africa International University and currently serves with Africa Inland Mission as a Theological Education Consultant. He is the author of five other books, including <i>The Multi-Church Pastor</i>, <i>Questions Pastors Ask</i>, and <i>Conflict Resolution in the Church</i>.</p>
