Six Worthy Pastoral Goals...

This seems like a pretty full picture of what pastoring ought to be all about. This list of six pastoral goals comes from a book by Derek Prime and Alistair Begg entitled, "Being a Pastor" [HT: Biblical Preaching].

1. Feed the flock - John 21:15-17

2. Proclaim the whole will of God - Acts 20:27

3. Present everyone perfect in Christ - Colossians 1:28-29

4. Prepare God’s people for works of service - Ephesians 4:12

5. Equip God’s people to be fisher’s of men - 2 Timothy 4:5

6. Keep watch over oneself until the task is complete - 1 Timothy 4:16
