# Church Planter ![[Assets/fc6145d06785e1533bca70da6060d1c4_MD5.jpg]] ## Metadata - Author: [[Darrin Patrick and Mark Driscoll]] - Full Title: Church Planter - Category: #books ## Highlights - the paradox of Christian ministry is that our peak performance in leading, shepherding, and preaching comes fundamentally from a rich spiritual life, and not from ministry skills per se. Becoming a better preacher, leader, shepherd, and cultural exegete depends entirely on the health and vitality of a pastor’s spiritual life.
