Query: An Honest Yet Hopeful look at Ordained Ministry

I would require anyone thinking of enrolling in seminary to first read this book. Dittes, a professor at Yale Divinity School, has provided an honest look at the trials and griefs of ordained ministry, while also affirming the validity, hope and sacred grounding of the vocation. Dittes warns of the pitfalls, illusions, disappointments, and thanklessness that pastors inevitably experience yet rarely confess in public. Nonetheless, it is a compassionate and loving look at a vocation that many feel they MUST enter, come what may.Although carefully written in inclusive language and with the view that pastors can be of either gender, the book still exhibits a slightly male bias in terms of the biblical metaphors employed and temptations faced.
