Ep. 213: Pastoring people who don't want your ministry

How do you assess your members resistance to your shepherding? What criteria should a pastor do his own assessment in his shepherding of the sheep? At what point can you determine if your members are wounded sheep or goats? What if an individual, family, or couple no longer receive your ministry the way they once did?

Jim and Brian discuss these and much more on this episode of Trenchtalk
