- Abstract
- The author researched how small church pastors evaluate their effectiveness. Four literature areas were reviewed: biblical-theological; Puritan notables; twentieth- and twenty-first-century authors on pastoral ministry; and contemporary writers on leadership effectiveness. The study employed a qualitative design in which eight small church pastors reflected on their experiences. Comparing and contrasting the literature with the interviews led to several conclusions: pastoring small churches is difficult; God is in charge of outcomes; diligence and faithfulness must be a minister's aim; prayer must accompany preaching; longevity is an asset; a reward awaits; and pastoring small churches is a noble calling.
