It was God’s plan from the beginning that shepherds should lead, care for, and protect His people. But when you couple the job of shepherd with the tasks of overseer and elder, the role becomes quite a bit more complicated. Most conscientious shepherds struggle to find the proper balance in their leadership role in the church.

Shepherding 101

Flavil Yeakley, Jr. shares from his wealth of experience to help churches better understand the shepherding role. He offers sound, biblical advice for those elderships who want to improve in their shepherding skills. He also shares valuable insight for those smaller congregations that don’t currently have official” shepherds. He suggests ways for decisions to be made and individuals to be shepherded while the church grows and matures. This book is a valuable tool for any who would develop and exercise the heart of a shepherd.
