Andrew Purves is Professor Emeritus of Historical Theology at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary. He received his PhD in 1978 from the University of Edinburgh, in Scotland. He has written several books on ancient and modern pastoral theology. In these interviews, he discusses the work of the ministry. It's not their own work, but Jesus' work, and pastors join with Jesus in doing that work. Pastoral work is rooted in who Jesus is, and who we are in him, but it is tailored for the circumstances that people find themselves in.
