Shepherds Of God's People: Revelation From God Through Christ: Leadership Of God'S People

This book explores Paul's heartfelt concern for the newly planted churches and the leaders who served in them. These letters of compassion, instruction, and admonition were meant to instruct and strengthen the leaders and the members of these churches.

Paul begins his letter to Timothy by introducing himself as "an apostle of Jesus Christ." Certainly, Timothy knew this. But Paul uses the title of the apostle to indicate that this is not just a letter to a friend. This letter is a revelation from God through Jesus Christ to the church. The information that follows is for the leadership of God's people for all time. Here is how they are to think, feel and live as shepherds of God's people.
