As summer begins, we want to help you craft the perfect Summer Reading List. We asked Southeastern Seminary professors what books they would recommend, and we’ll share their recommendations in coming weeks.

Today, Dr. Brad Hambrick recommends a book for your summer reading list.

'Saints, Sufferers, and Sinners' is the best primer on pastoral care for the whole person I've found.

Saints, Sufferers, and Sinners: Loving Others as God Loves Us
by Michael Emlet (New Growth Press, 2021)

Coming in at only 200 pages and over 25 chapters, Saints, Sufferers, and Sinners is the best primer on pastoral care for the whole person I’ve found. You’ll learn to minister to people’s identity, suffering, and sin through the lense of gospel. Regardless of the type of ministry you do, those you serve will be blessed if you read it.
