Living a life of Christian service is tough. Quite rightly we can have big hopes for what can be done and dealing with discouragement and disappointment when these dreams shatter can be a painful experience. Michael Milton has a real heart for those who are beginning that work, this heart comes out in brief, honest, penetrating letters that are gold for a pastor just starting out, and remain tremendously helpful to the rest of us, as we seek to serve Christ in our daily lives.

However, there are also extremely helpful reminders for those already along the path of ministry... this book is a wondeful plea for the power of letter writing in ministry, which may find us reaching for our fountain pens!
