The Reformed Pastor: The Duties and Methods of Labors for the Souls of Men [Updated and Annotated]

Let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. - Galatians 6:9 The Reformed Pastor, the work of Richard Baxter, has been long known and cherished by ministers of various evangeli­cal denominations as among the most inspiring, sacred, and fervent works ever written on the duties and responsibilities of the pastoral office. Many of them have had their own souls and ministries greatly affected as they read the book, much like they might imagine the burning coal from God's own altar did regarding the lips of the prophet (Isaiah 6:5-6). Although this book is more directly addressed to pas­tors, the lessons contained in the book may be applied to all Christians to whom God has given the opportunity and means of influencing others for His kingdom.
