Episode #8 Insights of Pastoral Significance - Part 2 "The Saul Syndrome" Conclusion

The Saul Syndrome is all about the Christian minister who is a bit like King Saul....   certainly called to ministry but carrying a lot of baggage, ranging from paranoia - depression - anxiety - to some basic behaviors of control and manipulation.   There may be the external persona of success, but behind the scene's the spears get thrown frequently!   This  episode is the second half of the Saul Syndrome, and it addresses some of the remedies for narcisistic pastors.... as well as some suggestions for those who have to work along side them. The next episode will dig into Part 3 "Pauls Keys For Success" https://www.amazon.com/s?k=ed+vainio&crid=2A3B5UHHLLI3O&sprefix=%2Caps%2C412&ref=nb_sb_ss_recent_1_0_recent

Episode #7 Insights of Pastoral Significance - Part 2 'The Saul Syndrome'

This episode starts Part 2 of the book "INSIGHTS OF PASTORAL SIGNIFICANCE" with a look at what we sometimes refer to as the 'dark-side' of ministry...... The Saul Syndrome.   It is important to restate from the introduction that this book was intended for ministers, bible college students and professors, so that these 'dark sides' would not catch them off guard, that they would not be intimidated or manipulated by them.  It is a healing salve for those who have been affected by such Saul-like leadership, not a baseball bat to attack the offender.  Please keep this in mind while listening.  It is our prayer that this would bolster the drive of the minister while sharpening his/her wits about such challenging matters.  May God, through His Spirit, guide you step by step through such times!!

This week we dig a little bit deeper into the job description of the Shepherd.   Again it should be noted that management and leadership styles in different areas of life don't translate well to  the leadership style of 'shepherd'.  As this chapter begins to define the role more specifically, we start into the "DO'S & DON'T'S" of being a shepherd.    Just a heads up:   I do not have a transcript for these episodes.  Pastor Vainio's book can be purchased on Amazon, the link is below.    Also, due to time and production dynamics, not all quotes in the book are attributed in this audio format.  This book has at least 155 citations, and a bibliography that runs about 4 pages long.  It is well researched!!!   That being said, please keep in mind that if you would like to get references to quotes that may not have been atributed in these episodes, you will need to get a copy of the book.      https://www.amazon.com/Insights-Pastoral-Significance-Ed-Vainio/dp/0557339812/ref=sr_1_1?
