Soul Care Culture: Developing a Church-Wide Culture of Biblical Soul Care
Episode 49: The Preacher As Counselor (with Scott Gnuse)
As pastors, we recognize our sacred calling to teach and preach God’s Word to our flock. But one of the questions we’ve been pondering is that of our call to counsel and care for them as well.
How does or should the care of souls within the local church impact our preaching? Does the dual focus on counseling and teaching have an impact, positive or negative, on either role? Can you only effectively be one or the other?
I am delighted to introduce you to a guest who has the answers to all these questions and more. Scott Gnuse is the teaching and leadership pastor at New Castle Bible Church in Mackinaw, IL.
In this episode, Scott shares how these two roles affect each other, why we should be careful not to neglect the ministry of prayer, our responsibility to genuinely care for people, and much more.
Listen in!
