The Reformed Pastor

What does it really mean to be a Reformed pastor or elder? You may think of holding to a Reformed confession of faith or preaching the doctrines of grace, or such things. And yes, it means all these things. But for Richard Baxter, "a Reformed pastor" does not limit himself to being able to intellectually affirm these if you don't put them into practice in your own life, and in the life of your congregation. A Puritan classic on pastoral ministry that would change you and your church for the glory of God. This book has been originally published in 1656. Current edition has been proofread, typeset for eBook readers, and slightly updated for modern readers. About the author: Richard Baxter (1615-1691) was an English Puritan church leader, theologian, and controversialist.
