Description
This book encourages ministry leaders to recognize, understand, and respond to the nuances and challenges that come with pastoring small communities. The authors acknowledge that leading a church in a small community can feel isolating and believe this context requires grounding oneself in loving the individuals the church serves and leaning on one’s faith for validation. A winner of the For the Church book award, the book is organized into chapters that explore universal themes such as love, patience, and courage and offer perspective on how each theme can guide a ministry leader through challenges specific to a small community congregation.
