The Pastor as Public Theologian : Reclaiming a Lost Vision, Hardback Book

The Pastor as Public Theologian : Reclaiming a Lost Vision Hardback

Hardback

Description

Many pastors today see themselves primarily as counselors, leaders, and motivators.

Yet this often comes at the expense of the fundamental reality of the pastorate as a theological office.

The most important role is to be a theologian mediating God to the people.

The church needs pastors who can contextualize biblical wisdom in Christian living to help their congregations think theologically about all aspects of their lives, such as work, end-of-life decisions, political involvement, and entertainment choices. Drawing on the Bible, key figures from church history, and Christian theology, this book offers a clarion call for pastors to serve as public theologians in their congregations and communities.

It is designed to be engaging reading for busy pastors and includes pastoral reflections on the theological task from twelve working pastors, including Kevin DeYoung and Cornelius Plantinga.
