Should A Pastor Set Goals?

Yes!  Derek Prime and Alistair Begg suggest that every pastor should set the following  six goals:

• to feed the flock (John 21:15-17)
• to proclaim the whole will of God (Acts 20:27)
• to present everyone perfect in Christ (Colossians 1:28-29)
• to prepare God’s people for works of service (Ephesians 4:12)
• to equip God’s people to be fisher’s of men (2 Timothy 4:5)
• to keep watch over oneself until the task is complete (1 Timothy 4:16)

Not a bad list to be starting with.
