EP 72: Michael A. Milton - The Secret Life of a Pastor (and other intimate letters on ministry)

Welcome to The Shaun Tabatt Show! In this episode I speak with Michael A. Milton about his book The Secret Life of a Pastor (and other intimate letters on ministry). Here are some of the topics we cover in the interview:

• Michael's experiences training and mentoring military chaplains
• The story behind these letters and how they made their way into this book
• Wisdom on staying consistent with devotional reading and prayer time
• The importance of studying original languages in college, seminary, and ministry
• The lost art of letter writing

About the Book:  Living a life of Christian service is tough. Quite rightly we can have big hopes for what can be done and dealing with discouragement and disappointment when these dreams shatter can be a painful experience. Michael Milton has a real heart for those who are beginning that work, this heart comes out in brief, honest, penetrating letters that are gold for a pastor just starting out, and remain tremendously helpful to the rest of us, as we seek to serve Christ in our daily lives. 

About the Author:  Michael A. Milton, is a Presbyterian minister, U.S. Army chaplain, and educator. His record of service includes senior minister of the historic First Presbyterian Church, Chattanooga, Tennessee. Dr Milton resides in North Carolina.
