On the Wall with Sword and Trowel

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Pastoral ministry is both the hardest job and best job one could ever have. Many answer the call but few seem to endure or finish well. Many pastors begin bright-eyed and excited and are shocked to realize that it’s all-out warfare for hearts and minds—not the least of which is your own. Sandy Zensen’s book should be required reading for those just starting out in church ministry, and instructive for those with years of experience. I highly recommend this book for all of those being used by God to build his church—with trowel in one hand and sword in the other.”
