Martin taught Pastoral Theology in the Trinity Ministerial Academy, a church-based ministerial training institution. Every Friday throughout the academic year, all the students would gather for two hours of teaching presented in a four-year cycle. Subsequently various series of the audiotapes were widely circulated. Many expressed their desire to see these lectures printed. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAs an intermediate step in responding to that desire, Pastor Martin taught his entire Pastoral Theology course “one more time” and the transcriptions of these lectures constituted the basis for these printed lectures. Within these lectures there are very few issues faced by the ordinary pastor that are not addressed in one way or another.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePastoral Theology – The Man of God, His Shepherding, Evangelizing, and Counseling Labors\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Work of Shepherding—Church Government\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Shepherding in the Pastoral Office\u003cbr\u003eChapter 2: The Prevailing Disposition of Shepherding (1)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 3: The Prevailing Disposition of Shepherding (2)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 4: The Corporate Identity and Life of the Church\u003cbr\u003eChapter 5: The Eldership (1) Plurality \u0026amp; Parity\u003cbr\u003eChapter 6: The Eldership (2) Qualifications\u003cbr\u003eChapter 7: The Eldership (3) Establishing an Eldership: Supplication \u0026amp; Cultivation\u003cbr\u003eChapter 8: The Eldership (4) Establishing an Eldership: Recognition\u003cbr\u003eChapter 9: The Eldership (5) Efficient Functioning of an Eldership\u003cbr\u003eChapter 10: The Diaconate (1) Roots and Origin\u003cbr\u003eChapter 11: The Diaconate (2) Functions\u003cbr\u003eChapter 12: The Diaconate (3) Qualifications \u0026amp; Reward\u003cbr\u003eChapter 13: Corrective Church Discipline (1)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 14: Corrective Church Discipline (2)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 15: Corrective Church Discipline (3)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 16: Corporate Ministry of the Body to Itself (1)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 17: Corporate Ministry of the Body to Itself (2)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 18: Cultivating Interchurch Communion (1)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 19: Cultivating Interchurch Communion (2)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Work of Shepherding—Corporate Worship\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Convictions Regarding Corporate Worship\u003cbr\u003eChapter 2: Leading Corporate Worship\u003cbr\u003eChapter 3: Characteristics and Climate of Corporate Worship\u003cbr\u003eChapter 4: Public Pastoral Prayer (1)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 5: Public Pastoral Prayer (2)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 6: Public Pastoral Prayer (3)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 7: Public Reading of Scripture\u003cbr\u003eChapter 8: Corporate Prayer Meetings (1)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 9: Corporate Prayer Meetings (2)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 10: Corporate Prayer Meetings (3)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 11: The Lord’s Supper\u003cbr\u003eChapter 12: Baptismal Services (1)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 13: Baptismal Services (2)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 14: Principles for Accepting Weddings \u0026amp; Funerals\u003cbr\u003eChapter 15: Officiating at Weddings\u003cbr\u003eChapter 16: Conducting Funerals\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Work of Evangelism \u0026amp; Pastoral Counseling\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Doing the Work of an Evangelist (1)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 2: Doing the Work of an Evangelist (2)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 3: Doing the Work of an Evangelist (3)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 4: Doing the Work of an Evangelist (4)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 5: Local Church Evangelism (1)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 6: Local Church Evangelism (2)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 7: Local Church Evangelism (3)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 8: Overview of Pastoral Counseling (1)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 9: Overview of Pastoral Counseling (2)\u003cbr\u003eChapter 10: Presuppositions Regarding the Counselor\u003cbr\u003eChapter 11: Presuppositions Regarding the Counselee\u003cbr\u003eChapter 12: Presuppositions Regarding the Counsel\u003cbr\u003eChapter 13: The Sessions of Pastoral Counseling\u003cbr\u003eChapter 14: Addressing Problems in Pastoral Counseling\u003cbr\u003eChapter 15: Assessing Progress and Dismissal\u003cbr\u003eChapter 16: The Ethics of Pastoral Counseling\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trinity Pulpit Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53395936706858,"sku":"9781943608133","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0942\/7746\/8458\/files\/Untitled-1__24459.1602003779.1280.1280__83477.1754404402.1280.1280.jpg?v=1793397046","url":"https:\/\/heritagebooks.org\/products\/pastoral-theology-volume-3-the-man-of-god-his-shepherding-evangelizing-and-counseling-labors","provider":"Reformation Heritage Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
