Description

Being a Christian leader is a huge privilege. It is also a huge challenge. Paul, a man who knew how tough it could be, wrote a letter to his young friend who was at a crossroads in the ministry, to encourage resilience in the spiritual battle. John Benton looks at what 2 Timothy has to say about finding strength, recovering from discouragement and keeping going as a Christian leader.

I am so grateful, as one in the early days of ministry, that John has put in black and white sound and earthy wisdom from God’s word on how to joyfully persevere in ministry for the long term. I can only thank him for writing it and encourage others in ministry to read it!

Paul Brennan, Pastor, The Tron at Kelvingrove, Glasgow, UK

‘Resilient’ is full of honest realism, written to Pastors who have ‘signed up for hardship and sacrifice’. Using the timeless truths of 2 Timothy, John shows how it is possible to be resilient, to persevere in ministry, though the challenges and pressures are huge. This book will be of great help to church leaders, to all who teach God’s word and pastor His people and to those who support those who do so.

This book is a wonderful example of how God’s word speaks afresh in every generation. With a careful exegetical eye and a kind pastor’s heart, Dr Benton unpacks 2 Timothy showing us the true roots of and great need for resilience in pastoral ministry. This is an excellent resource for pastors to keep on keeping on.
