A thoroughly biblical and pervasively practical introduction to principles drawn from the New Testament. This classic conveys the gravity and importance of the elders calling.
Phil Ryken and George McFarland have served us well by bringing this classic on the shepherding ministry of elders up to date and back into print. The thoughtful tone of this work is convicting, encouraging us to be the shepherds God has raised up for the good of His flock and the glory of His name. I can't wait to use this with our own elders!Mark Dever, senior pastor of Capitol Hill Baptist Church in Washington, D.C.
