The Resilient Pastor: Leading Your Church in a Rapidly Changing World Hardcover -

by Glenn Packiam; Foreword by David Kinnaman


From the publisher

How can pastors become resilient in a rapidly changing world? Is it possible to love well and lead faithfully? In the wake of crises that have exposed and accelerated massive cultural shifts, we see more clearly the seismic shifts of post-Christendom, the surging storms of a new paganism and pluralism, and the scattered debris of the cultural aftermath.

Drawing on new research from the Barna Group, Scripture, and church history, pastor, theologian, and researcher Glenn Packiam addresses some of the most pressing questions for today's leaders, including

- What is a pastor's calling and vocation?
- How do church leaders regain credibility in a disillusioned world?
- How do church leaders cultivate a deeper life with God?
- How do pastors develop meaningful relationships?
- Why does the church gather in worship? Does it still matter if we do?
- How do we actually make disciples in this new landscape?
- How can we face the challenges to unity presented by nationalism and racism?
- What is the church's mission in the world?
- How do we welcome the presence and power of God in our churches?

This book is for all who are burdened by the challenges facing the church as well as the turbulence of our times. With infographics, enlightening data, and insights from other ministry leaders, this book is the perfect resource for church leaders who want to cultivate resilience in their ministry today.

From the rear cover

"Leadership is not for the fainthearted in these turbulent times, yet there is great hope for the future of the church. This is a must-read for pastors and for anyone who loves the church."--Christine Caine, founder of A21 and Propel Women

"If there's anything pastors and church leaders need in these bewildering days, it's resilience. If you feel embattled or discouraged or exhausted, you will find words of hope in this book."--Dr. Russell Moore, director of the Public Theology Project at Christianity Today

"One of the brightest and most thoughtful pastors in America turns his attention to one of the most pressing issues of our time, bringing seasoned wisdom tothis cultural moment in which we find ourselves serving the Lord Jesus Christ and his people."--Pete Greig, Founder 24-7 Prayer International and author of How to Pray: A Simple Guide for Normal People

"It's not hyperbole to say that this moment in history is one of the most difficult times to be a pastor. Ever. Yet, this moment has given us the opportunity to reimagine pastoral ministry for a new generation. This book could not have come at a better time."--Rich Villodas, lead pastor of New Life Fellowship and author of The Deeply Formed Life

"Aided by the latest research from Barna and a spectrum of wise contributing voices, The Resilient Pastor should be required reading not just for those in ministry but for anyone considering a pastoral calling."--Skye Jethani, cohost of The Holy Post podcast and award-winning author of WithGodDaily.com

"I absolutely devoured this book. With wisdom, winsomeness, and brilliant expertise, Glenn answers many of the questions I have been asking and provides many of the insights I have been craving. This book is an incredible resource for pastors, and it has come to us not a minute too soon."--Sharon Hodde Miller, teaching pastor at Bright City Church in Durham, North Carolina
