God’s Word calls for both preaching and pastoral work. In Pastoral Preaching, Caldwell shows how these two responsibilities cannot be divorced from one another. Biblical preaching requires that preachers enter the pulpit as shepherds. The pastor is not simply a dispenser of information. He is not a spiritual marketer who is trying to get his finger on the pulse of what would interest and attract the listener. The man who faithfully preaches is the man who loves God and His church, and therefore watches for souls. He should have the mindset and aim of one who is called by God to shepherd the church through the careful teaching and application of the Word of God. Preaching is a pastoral work. If preaching is to be what God means for it to be, then preachers must embrace what God means for them to be.
