What is it that makes a good pastor? And what does it mean to be a good pastor? What is the role of the pastor? Where and how can the skills of pastoring be acquired? Why are some making it while others drop out of the ministry after a few years? How can senior pastors help Bible college graduates after they have completed their formal theological studies? What does it take to be introduced to the “world of the pastor”? How important is the first year in the ministry? Should an internship be a mandatory integral part of education and preparation for ordination? How can we spot, recruit and develop new leaders?
The author looks at the nature of coaching and mentoring and how it can serve the vital and formative phase of discipleship and preparation for the ministry. It purposes to make a contribution towards moving away from a more program-oriented and pastor-centered approach to a relationship-oriented and team-based approach in church development: To become part of an organic growth-process and dynamic movement rather than maintaining the status quo and preserving an institution of the past.
