We sit down with dean of LFBI and pastor of Harvest Baptist Church, Dr. Alan Shelby to discuss the unfolding biblical role of the pastor. We also see ways in which false ideas about leadership, stemming from traditions of the Imperial Church, have negatively informed the way church leaders function in their responsibilities today. Alan points back to scripture to then address how a leader ought to cast a vision for their local church that anticipates Christ’s imminent return and emphasizes the urgent mission before them.
Also, in this episode of the Ps+34 we take a look at two philosophies of Bible translation: Formal Equivalence and Dynamic Equivalence.
