Pastor and People

When I was first called into the ministry an older preacher tell me that I needed to drive a used car in order to afford books and build a sound library. A sound library is indispensable in the life of the pastor. A faithful expositor builds a library that will aid him in study and sermon preparation in order to “rightly divide the word of truth.” Many of a pastors best friends are those who have died centuries before but set upon his shelf speaking to him daily.

If you are developing your library or need help in organizing the one you have please click on the link below:
