October is Clergy Appreciation Month.
Although this is publishing a little later than I hoped (due to my mid-month vacation), I wanted to highlight a few excellent new books for Clergy Appreciation Month that might be great gifts to give to your pastor. Or if you are a pastor yourself, to treat yourself to or to give to co-pastors or other friends who are pastors.
Letters to a Young Pastor: Timothy Conversations between Father and Son
Eric Peterson /
Eugene Peterson
Have you ever felt in over your head? When Eric Peterson became the pastor of a brand-new church, he quickly and wisely turned to his dad for guidance. Eugene Peterson, author of more than thirty books including his bestselling memoir The Pastor and his groundbreaking Bible The Message, here reflects on pastoral ministry in all its complexity―from relationships to administration to the sheer audacity of leading God’s people in a particular place. This is Eugene Peterson at his best―lifelong wisdom written with deep love.
As the reader, you will glimpse into the tender, witty, personal side of Eugene mentoring his own son. These intimate letters will be treasured by all who read, and applicable to church leaders around the globe.
