Paths for the Shepherd is a pastoral look at the role and responsibilities of the shepherd with the intention of rediscovering the biblical expectations of pastoral leadership. Glenn highlights the picture of the shepherd as our inspired model and then focuses on nine tasks pastors are legitimately called to perform. Leadership is often taught from the vantage of extra-biblical models - sports, military, political, and corporate. while there are many great examples of leadership to be gleaned from all of these, they are not the singular model of leadership specifically linked to ministry by the inspired authors. That distinction belongs to the humble shepherd. His unique relationship with and to his sheep, his particular brand of leadership - oversight, guidance, protection, and provision - make him especially qualified as the role model for leadership in pastoral ministry. Remind yourself of the relevance of these ancient, simple, and profound truths. Paths for the Shepherd is a fresh look at the leadership skills every pastor must demonstrate effectively to fulfill his divine duties - to his flock and to his Lord.
