Liberating Ministry from the Success Syndrome cover

"One of the very best books I have read on the spirituality of pastoral ministry." -Philip Graham Ryken, President, Wheaton College; author, Loving the Way Jesus Loves "I recommend that every pastor first read the Hughes's book privately and then go over it with his lay leaders. Doing this will not be less than a milestone and might well be a watershed." -J. I. Packer, Board of Governors' Professor of Theology, Regent College "Born out of experience, based on the Word of God, and applied to real life, this book is just what weary and discouraged pastors and their wives need. And it wouldn't hurt if critical church officers read it too! I highly recommend it." -Warren W. Wiersbe, Retired General Director, Back to the Bible "With wisdom gained from their own struggles and long years of experience, Kent and Barbara Hughes spell out the principles that can set God's servants free from the yoke of unscriptural ideas." -Vernon C. Grounds, Chancellor, Denver Seminary "Bless you, Kent and Barbara, for saying with clarity and boldness what thousands of pastors and pastors' wives need to hear. Your call back to the basics in ministry will free many from the false demands of 'success' and restore the proper measurements of achievement." -Ray C. Stedman, Former Pastor, Peninsula Bible Church, Palo Alto, CA
