Endorsements

"I am very pleased to commend this unusually helpful book. The Effective Pastor will, without question make pastors more effective..."

Nigel M. de S. Cameron

"All in all, it is a rare and delicious blend. It's worth drinking slowly and savouring every mouthful."

Derek Tidball
Formerly Principal of London School of Theology

... this book, though primarily for pastors, is of value to all christians. It is to be seriously hoped that this volume will be found not just on the library shelves of pastors, but also in their hands. If your minister does not have a copy, buy one for him.

Evangelicals Now

... to read, mark, learn and inwardly digest the contents of this book will undoubtedly both challenge and raise the levels of any pastor's competence in the many and varied tasks which constitute 'the ministry',

"The Effective Pastor provides practical information. White strengthens his message through the use of Bible Verses and quotes by famous people at the beginning of each chapter. He also encourages application and evaluation by including exercises at the end of many of the chapters. An extensive bibliography promotes further study. This book should be added to seminary libraries as well as to every pastor's personal book collection."

Ellen Clodfelter ‘Ashland Theological Journal 35’ (2003)

"Peter White has provided a most helpful assistance to preachers in his new volume... Preachers are in Peter White's debt for his assistance."

R. Albert Mohler
President, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, Kentucky

"A great challenge is how to alter the past mould without losing the immeasurable benefits of the past. The issues Peter White tackles have marked, sometimes painful, relevance to church leaders everywhere."

Derek Prime
(1931–2020)Author and former pastor of Charlotte Chapel, Edinburgh

"There has long been a need for a contemporary manual on the work of the ministry...The Effective Pastor recognises this need and meets it. It will be widely welcomed, eagerly read, and should stimulate thought and discussion...Peter White is to be congratulated."

Sinclair B. Ferguson
