Well-intentioned Dragons

 – Ministering to Problem People in the Church, by Marshall Shelley. Word Books, Waco, TX.

This book is based on interviews with local church leaders who have been ‘signed’ by flame-throwing dragons. This is more than a book of war stories, it is an eye opening book that reveals why people are the way they are, and how to keep your sanity when dealing with difficult people. Michael Catt says, “This book should be required reading at every seminary. Most ministers are unprepared to deal with dragons and consequently lose their jobs, their sanity and sometimes, their ministry.”
