Book Synopsis
Spiritual Formation for Pastors takes pastors on a journey. First, author Michael Gemignani explores "The Look of a Sound Spirituality" and then he provides a map to help pastors navigate "The Road to a Sound Spirituality." Along that road are the guideposts of classic spiritual disciplines such as contemplative prayer, meditation, and Bible study. And, Gemignani urges pastors to find companions for the journey, spiritual directors who will assist them in striving for the higher levels of maturity essential to those who are called to Christian leadership.
