A Pastor's Sketches is one of the finest and most unique books ever written on the subject of evangelistic and pastoral ministry. It should rightly take its place on the desk of every pastor, but is immensely useful to anyone helping others to know God. Drawing on his meticulous note-taking from evangelistic efforts, Spencer accurately retells a helpful sampling of these encounters, including many of the excuses, spiritual strongholds, and lies that keep souls away from Christ. Each chapter, or sketch, includes a narrative of Spencer's efforts to apply the Scriptures under the guiding counsel of the Holy Spirit in order to help people overcome their personal obstacles to faith and repentance. He then shares with us the primary lessons which can be learned from each interaction. Written in this way, the reader is able to peer over Spencer's shoulder across a wide range of pastoral counseling, witnessing his love and patience with needy souls and gaining wisdom along the way.
 SPECIAL TO THIS EDITION:
 Smythe-sewn hardback will last a lifetime.
 Also, the book has two new appendices. The first contains sketch summaries in which each chapter, or sketch, is given a brief summary along the following three points: (1) a recount of the reservations/hesitations/problems of the person; (2) Spencer's method of treating him/her; (3) the chief point to be learned from the sketch. The second appendix is a subject index for the book, based on the summary index. These two appendices makes it much easier to locate sketches which correspond to difficulties and subjects with which you may be dealing at any given time as you counsel with others.
