Personally, I think this book is fantastic. It gives you a base understanding of practice what is needed. This is definitely a book I will be referencing throughout the ministry. There are a couple of things I don't agree with but not enough to outweigh the good content.

I would recommend this book for sure. Note that my view is as someone wanting to go into ministry and not an experienced minister. I do however believe everyone can learn something from this book.
