- Abstract
- This study was to explored how pastors develop leaders as spiritual shepherds for the local church. This study utilized a qualitative research design, in which seven pastors were interviewed based on a semi-structured interview format. The literature review and analysis of the seven interviews revealed that developing spiritual shepherds is a long-term process of helping people discern God's calling to this role, and helping them develop the competencies and character required. This study concluded that developing spiritual shepherds requires a strong relational investment, a commitment to using ordinary means of grace, and relying upon the help of the congregation.
