It is a revealing window into the tumult of Paul's relationship with this congregation that shows Paul's concern for the spiritual welfare of a local church. Although he loved the Corinthians dearly and labored for them intensely, their relationship was marked by the tensions and challenges that are acutely familiar to church leaders today: unclear expectations, comparison to other pastors, criticisms of ministry style, vocational stresses, disputes over money, and more. Reuben Bredenhof expertly unpacks these complexities and reveals Paul's vision for Christ-shaped gospel ministry--a vision that can help you, too.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction: Searching for a Model of Ministry\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eServing under Pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilding a Ministerial Identity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePastoring Like a Father\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreaching for the Glory of Christ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFacing a Barrage of Criticism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandling Money Wisely\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeing a Willing Sufferer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorking with Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfterword: Traveling from Corinth to Today\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Reformation Heritage Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/26\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781601788429\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144","brand":"Reuben Bredenhof","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39521902231733,"sku":"9781601788429","price":11.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_67fdab25-754c-4771-b065-4cbde85fc3bf.jpg?v=1616507254","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/weak-pastor-strong-christ-developing-a-christ-shaped-gospel-ministry-9781601788429","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
