N2  - There are endless resources helping pastors do the work of ministry. Yet far fewer stop and ask, "Are we doing the right work?" Immeasurable is a collection of essays on the current state of pastoral ministry. Drawing on Scripture, cultural studies, and hundreds of conversations with church leaders across the country, Skye advocates for renewed postures toward this sacred calling. He exposes unbiblical definitions of success and builds a case for doing the kind of ministry that can't be measured. His rich reflections on pastoral ministry will refresh any who heed the call. --
