Conference Teaching Library: “Don’t Lose Heart: Persevering Through the Pressures of Ministry”
Every pastor faces discouragement—but the greatest battle is often not with the church, the community, or the circumstances. It's the struggle within. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 1 and 4, Les Lofquist (former small-town church planter and Executive Director of IFCA for 20 years) offers biblical encouragement for weary shepherds, reminding us why we must not lose heart and how God uses even our weaknesses and trials for His glory.
