Pastoral Problems

by William Bell Riley

Out of his fifty years of experience as a pastor and teacher of homiletics, Dr. Riley prepared this handbook on every question pertaining to the work of the Christian appointment, preaching, administering the ordinances, per-forming a wedding service, conducting a funeral, untangling church quarrels, visiting, church music, finance, church organizations, the pastor and missions, and transacting church business. The book is Biblical and practical. Its chief authority is the Bible and every chapter has Scriptural quotations enforcing its thesis. It is practical because of the rich experience of the author and his skill in making that experience available to his readers. These forthright directions and suggestions have been tested out by Dr. Riley in the classroom and in the field. They have proved helpful to preachers just beginning their ministerial experience and to those still seeking solutions to so many of the common problems.
