PASTORAL MINISTRY
(TRAINING FOR PASTORS)
II. Introduction A pastor’s role is—by definition—one who cares for the flock (the people in the congregation of believers). “Pastor” and “shepherd” are equivalent terms. The pastor-shepherd guides, protects and feeds the flock. In the New Testament, a pastor "shepherds" the flock. Jesus is called "The Chief Shepherd" and pastors are "under-shepherds".
