Creating a Culture of Joy in Your Church

Speakers: C.J. Mahaney Year: 2016 Session: Breakout Session

“shepherd the flock of God that is among you, exercising oversight, not under compulsion, but willingly, as God would have you; not for shameful gain, but eagerly.” (1 Peter 5:2) Pastoral ministry not only involves the faithful proclamation of the gospel but it also calls for pleasing God in the privacy of the pastor’s heart. In this breakout session, C.J. Mahaney looks at 1 Peter 5 to help encourage pastors in their joy in ministry.
