Pastoral Theology: The Man of God - His shepherding, evangelizing & counselling labours

From 1978 to 1998, Pastor A.N. Martin taught Pastoral Theology in the Trinity Ministerial Academy, a church-based ministerial training institution. Every Friday throughout the academic year, all the students would gather for two hours of teaching presented in a four-year cycle. Subsequently various series of the audiotapes were widely circulated. Many expressed their desire to see these lectures printed. As an intermediate step in responding to that desire, Pastor Martin taught his entire Pastoral Theology course “one more time” and the transcriptions of these lectures constituted the basis for these printed lectures. Within these lectures there are very few issues faced by the ordinary pastor that are not addressed in one way or another.

______________

Albert N. Martin was one of the founding pastors of Trinity Baptist Church in Montville, NJ, where he labored for 46 years. Pastor Martin faithfully expounded the scriptures with a Christ-exalting focus and with passionate, penetrating, and pointed application at Trinity as well as at its annual pastors’ conferences. His ministry was also sought in churches and conferences throughout the States and around the world. In June 2008, he retired from his pastoral labors and relocated to Michigan with his wife, Dorothy, where he now resides while continuing his labors of counseling, writing, and preaching.

“These lectures have influenced my life profoundly. As a seminary student, they were meat and drink to my soul and equipped and furnished me for the Master’s use. As a workman in the mission field, these lectures provide a biblical blueprint for the construction of God’s temple filled with “living stones.” As an instructor, like Elisha’s servant, I have borrowed an iron axe from Pastor Martin’s “tool box” to help establish and strengthen churches for the glory of Christ.” Thomson Chung, Pastor, Trinity Church of Hong Kong, Reformed Baptist
