For the Perfecting of the Saints: Exploring the Ministries of the Pastor and of the Teacher

The scriptures reveal that God has set ministries and gifts in the Church. The ministries of the apostle and the prophet provided the foundation for the Church. However, their ministries alone could not advance the Church. Thus, God set other ministries within the Church; namely, the pastor and the teacher. These ministries are important for the equipping and maturing of the saints. In the pages of this book, we will discuss the ministries of the pastor and of the teacher in detail. A proper understanding of these ministries will help individuals recognize and appreciate their functionality in the Church.
