These outstanding lectures were delivered from September 29 - October 3, 1873 at the School of Theology in the Boston University, and were subsequently published at the earnest request of the students and the faculty who heard them delivered. One reason for the value of this work is that the lectures were delivered by a man who had been serving Christ in the Gospel ministry for more than half a century.
"The Christian Pastor by Stephen H. Tyng is very personable and pastoral and sound." - Dr. Tom Nettles
"While I have several excellent books on Christian ministry written in the 19th century, because of the brevity and punch of Tyng’s work, I would heartily recommend this book as a tool for young pastors to read. I read through it for my after-church service “Sunday night reading”, bringing to my own mind a lot of encouragement and instruction in Christ-centered pastoral ministry." - Scott Lamb
