Fit for the Pulpit: The Preacher & His Challenges
Who ministers to the minister? Surely the preacher has it all together he does't deal with the issues so common to the human experience, does he? The one who mans the pulpit every Sunday is not superhuman; he is by no means above the fray. He often shares and is well-acquainted with the struggles plaguing his audience. How should the preacher manage his time and control his stress level? How does he balance family and ministry? How does he deal with critics and discouragers? Preachers need strengthening. They need to be fit for the pulpit.

Fit for the Pulpit was extremely encouraging and practical. It helped me to see that the situations and trials that I am facing and will face are common and they can be overcome. I am thankful for the Christ centered theme of the book. I enjoyed the variety of writers in the book. Messages from veteran preachers and young bucks like me helped me see the brotherhood of preaching as a blessing. I am confident that my preaching, my ministry, and my life for Christ will be better for this book.

As someone who is currently studying to be a minister, this book was incredibly helpful in giving me an idea of exactly what I am getting involved in and ways I can prepare for the life of a minister. I am grateful for the work and wisdom contained in it's pages.

Loved this book! I picked it up at a seminar because it looked like a great book that would speak to the preachers heart and give encouragement. It did! I would highly recommend this book.

A much needed booklet for anyone who is a preacher or is deciding whether or not to become one. The chapters are very pertinent and well written.
