Description
Seminaries often fall short in preparing pastors to serve as ministers of reconciliation,” observes pastor and seasoned mediator Alfred Poirier. While pastors receive strong training in biblical exposition, structured worship, and sound theology, many lack practical skills in an essential aspect of their role—conflict resolution.
In The Peacemaking Pastor, Poirier—chairman of Peacemaker Ministries—examines common conflicts in pastoral ministry, highlighting the urgent need to reclaim the biblical mission of reconciliation. He not only underscores the significance of this ministry but also offers a theological foundation for peacemaking and practical guidance for navigating disputes.
Written by a pastor for pastors, this insightful book aims to inspire and equip seminary and church leaders to fulfill their God-given calling: fostering a culture of peace within the church.
