Reflections for the Call: A Devotional for Young Preachers
Kyle J. Boyer
Synopsis "Reflections for the Call: A Devotional for Young Preachers"
Penned from one young preacher, to others, all preachers will appreciate the wisdom of Reflections for the Call. Written as a devotional, the book uses practical truths and relevant scriptures to help reconfirm the assignments of those in ministry. When read with fidelity, it will reignite the passion of not just young preachers, but anyone with a public ministry call on their life. As they advance through the pages, readers will find thirty timeless admonitions that every minister-especially young ministers-should embrace. Each devotion begins with a scriptural lesson and an easy-to-understand reflection on an important lesson for ministry. Each of the reflections includes sound exegesis of the scriptural reference, and is completed with a prayer that the reader can use at that very moment. From the Foreword: "One of the most impactful tools for young preachers is peer mentoring and peer empowerment, as 'Iron sharpens iron' (Proverbs 27:17). Many younger pastors, preachers, and leaders consistently reach out to me asking for mentorship. I am always excited to share my stories, journey, failures, successes, experiences, and principles to live by. Also, there are always inquiries about books and articles for a young leader I may recommend. Added to that list of recommended books is this devotional." - Pastor Linwood Dillard, Citadel of Deliverance Church, Memphis, TN.According to Dr. Marsha Brown Woodard of Palmer Theological Seminary, "These devotions...will speak to young preachers, and still be of benefit to more seasoned preachers as they seek to be faithful to God's call on their lives."There are plenty of preaching books, but few are designed with the young minister in mind. Kyle Boyer has written a work that combines theology and practicality to offer a great guidebook tor anyone seeking to be faithful to their God-given assignments.
