This collection of pastoral letters presents a model of compassionate leadership. Pastor C. John (Jack) Miller teaches that a Christian leader must first and foremost be a servant whose attitudes reflect a heart transformed by a relationship with God. Through his correspondence, he leads his readers to develop a deeper understanding of the gospel as well as a life of humility, faith and prayer. He also challenges those called to serve as leaders by asking them to find their primary motivation in the glory of God alone.

These letters provide advice on:
- questions relating to pastoral ministry;
- how to achieve victory on sin;
