<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>Originally presented as two talks following the 2009 Gospel Coalition conference, Piper and Carson here reflect on the interrelationship of pastoral ministry and scholarship.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>What will our scholarship and pastoral ministry be if we are heads without hearts or hearts without heads? Recognizing the need for pastors and scholars to embody both theological depth and practical focus, John Piper and D. A. Carson have boldly advanced what it means to be a pastor-theologian and a theologian-pastor.</p><p>Weaving testimony and teaching, Piper and Carson challenge those in academia and in the pastorate to think carefully and holistically about their calling. Piper centers on the importance of careful thinking in his role as pastor, while Carson focuses on the importance of a pastoral heart in his career as scholar.</p><p>With insight and balance, Piper and Carson give critical guidance to help us span interdisciplinary gaps to the glory of God and the good of his church. These chapters are revised and expanded versions of the messages originally given following the 2009 Gospel Coalition conference.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><strong>John Piper</strong> is founder and lead teacher of desiringGod.org and chancellor of Bethlehem College & Seminary.
