Book Synopsis Pastoring Small Towns by : Ronnie Martin
Download or read book Pastoring Small Towns written by Ronnie Martin and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2023-04-11 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Small town life is quite different from life in a big city. There is not as much traffic. People recognize each other at the grocery store. Local sporting events carry a different cultural weight, and it may not be out of the ordinary to wait behind a tractor or get used to the smell of a nearby factory. These communities are unique, and pastoring here is an extraordinary task. Ronnie Martin and Donnie Griggs are well-aware of this reality. In Pastoring Small Towns, their hope is to equip pastors and ministry leaders to take on the different nuances that come with pastoring smaller communities. They point out the cultural realities of these places and give pastors the tools to effectively engage their people with the Gospel.

Book excerpt: Small Town Mission is a practical guide for gospel-centered mission in small towns. If you haven't noticed, people who live in small towns have limited options for restaurants, shopping, and books about mission.

This book aims to help local churches in small towns do that. After all, mission isn't just something that must be prioritized globally and in big cities; it must also be prioritized locally and in small towns.
