God has graciously given the church gifted men to feed, guide, and protect His people-to equip the saints, build up the body of Christ, and lead her toward spiritual maturity.

God has graciously given the church gifted men to feed, guide, and protect His people-to equip the saints, build up the body of Christ, and lead her toward spiritual maturity. Through their faithful ministry, the church is anchored in truth and guarded against deception. Yet in many places, the high calling of the pastor has been diminished. Qualifications are watered down, biblical responsibilities are neglected, and the role is reshaped to suit personal ambitions. Some claim the title of evangelist while advancing sacramental traditions. Others gain followers and wealth but lack the character and integrity that Scripture demands. Still others stand behind pulpits to deliver lectures rather than preach the Word with conviction. In light of these distortions, this book aims to recover a biblical vision of the pastoral office-one that honors God by presenting a faithful, scripturally grounded portrait of the man called to shepherd Christ's church.
Curtis Braun is a Reformed Christian author known for works such as The False Gospel of Baptismal Regeneration in the Lutheran Church, Christ's Call to Saving Faith, The Gospel Call and Conversion Theology of James, and The Apostle Paul's Theology on Conversion. In this book, Curtis aims to restore a biblical understanding of the pastoral office. He explores how God, by His grace, shapes a pastor's character and equips him to walk faithfully before the Lord, proclaim the gospel, preach and teach the Word, confront false teaching, address sin within the church, and endure persecution.
