In this episode of Pastor Matters, we are joined by Dr. Allan Moseley to discuss how to deal with contentious sheep. While people are one of the most rewarding aspects of ministry, they can also be among the most challenging. Dr. Moseley and Dr. Lawless share lessons they have learned about handling frustration, promoting unity within the church, and lovingly confronting others. Throughout the conversation, they emphasize the importance of a pastor’s personal relationship with the Lord as he seeks to faithfully love and shepherd contentious sheep.
