"Preparing for our Pastoral Lives with the Right Mindset, Part I."How is your Ministry going? We are going to explore the key ingredients that make a good, healthy Pastor. Thus, these articles are written to pastors, whose call is to shepherd their flock. However, these curriculums can also be used to hone anyone in Christian service and leadership.
