Avoiding pastoral risk factors Prioritizing your family Equipping and leading leaders Caring for the sick and grieving Guarding your heart in the pulpit Conducting funerals and weddings
Being a pastor means wearing many hats, weathering lots of pressure, and bearing great responsibility. Let H. B. Charles be a trusted advisor as you do the grave work of shepherding a flock of God.
