But Thabiti Anyabwile contends that it is not the mistakes we must study; it is the people who have overcome them. So he presents three of the most influential African-American pastors in American history who can teach us what faithful ministry entails.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLemuel Haynes (1753-1833) reminds pastors that eternity must shape our ministry. Daniel A. Payne (1811-1893) stresses the importance of character and preparation to faithful shepherding. And Francis J. Grimk� (1850-1937) provides a vision for engaging the world with the gospel. While they are from the African-American tradition, they, like all true saints, belong to all Christians of every background and era. Distinctive for its use of rare and out-of-print messages, Anaybwile's work is valuable as a reference as well as a devotional resource.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thabiti M Anyabwile","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40701329670193,"sku":"9781581348279","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0571\/9926\/3793\/files\/9781581348279.jpg?v=1781778724","url":"https:\/\/bakerbookhouse.com\/products\/9781581348279_the-faithful-preacher","provider":"Baker Book House ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
