| Publisher Description: "The Character of a Christian Minister" is a biblical-theological analysis, including an etymological, historical, and contemporary overview on what should be the character of a Christian minister with more than 50 inquiries on the matter to pastors and prolific writers of all the globe. This book is the result of the author's doctoral thesis (the character of a minister). Here readers are challenged to exceed the general thought on the subject and to navigate biblical thought to find its real meaning and personal application. Pastor J. C. De la Cruz believes and suggests that this topic should be a formal matter for seminars, seminaries, institutes and academies of Christian formation. Ignorance of this issue (by pastors as well as the people of God in general) is a determinant factor for the reason why so many "ministers" fall into reproach and the snare of the devil, showing cracks in their character-leaving deep doubts about their call to ministry. This is a book that the ministers of the churches and believers in general should read to learn how to focus when trying to evaluate, choose and confirm a minister of the Gospel (pastor, elder, bishop, deacon, leader, etc.). The material also helps to find and understand God's ideal for a biblical ministry, and therefor a Christian church to become more biblical and healthy. |
