Did you know that on Monday mornings many pastors resign in their hearts? Most somehow find the courage to go on, but it is tragic how lonely and isolated pastors feel. There is, however, a Biblical leadership model solution. Dr. J. Thomas Swanner, a former pastor himself, delineates this model very well with many Biblical examples, and with studies in life today. To implement it, though, leaders must hear the Lord's voice and get out of the boat.
