Reprinted from the Oikonomia Network. Our collection of EWP Talks on Pastoral Leadership will equip your students for the unique task of stewarding both the gospel and their congregations.

Reprinted from The Chalmers Center. People are not projects. Please listen to these words and take them to heart. All human beings are made in the image of the living God.
