CFTROU 0070: Ministry Leaders Are Readers
Growing up, we were drilled about the importance of reading but our busy schedules and hectic lives make it difficult. In this episode we talk to Trevin Wax, Director for Bibles and Reference at LifeWay Christian Resources, about the importance of ministry leaders being readers. He talks about how reading is especially important for pastors who disseminate knowledge and minister to people on a regular basis. Ministry leaders need to grow spiritually and intellectually so they can always be ready with a timely word. People can’t live off what they’ve learned in seminary years ago. Trevin encourages us to expand our knowledge so that we can remain culturally relevant and effective in ministry, and he gives us tips on how to get started.
Key Points:
The intellectual life of a pastor ought to connect with a real missionary zeal and passion.
