About

These pastoral letters serve as models of compassionate leadership. Jack Miller taught that a Christian leader should be the chief servant, and that right attitudes come only from a heart changed by an encounter with God. Miller leads his reader into a deeper understanding of the gospel and a life of humility, faith, and prayer.

Miller gently challenges those called to serve as leaders to find their primary motivation in the glory of God alone.

Miller’s letters provide counsel on:

• Ministry issues
• Overcoming sin
• Spiritual warfare
• Physical suffering
• Learning to forgive
