scum, shepherd: the apostle Paul uses rich imagery when he discusses what it means to be a Christian leader. Derek Ticiball believes these images have important lessons and fresh insights for pastors and others in church leadership today. At a time when such people struggle under
increasing pressure to 'produce results' and perform-up to standard', what is needed is a different way of looking at leadership. Builders and Fools provides that. By explaining and drawing out the implications of Pauls imagery, it helps us focus on what really matters, on what God wants leaders to do and how he wants them to be. Derek Tidball, for a number of years a Baptist minister in Plymouth, is Principal of London Bible College. He is author of a number of books, including the well-known work on pastoral theology.
