Shepherding in the 21st Century

Adapting Timeless Truths to Changing Times

Dr. Vorce takes on the pastoral challenges of today, guiding pastors through the complexities of leading a modern congregation. He covers preaching in an age of short attention spans and the role of technology in the church, with insight from a seasoned pastor and theologian. He also gives practical advice on financial accountability, spiritual submission, and recognizing our shared humanity despite our differences.

The second half looks at the pastor's role in a rapidly changing world: building networks, fostering a strong faith community, and balancing politics with pastoral duties. It addresses current events and social issues, welcoming newcomers, and reading Matthew 25 in a contemporary setting. It also considers artificial intelligence and pastoral care, and the importance of a strong devotional life.
