Reading this book is like watching a recording of a car crash in slow motion. It’s written by the man who crashed the car, and he’s writing it so that you might not make the same mistakes.
It’s a short book, easy to read, with seven lessons that Kyle McClellan learned from four pastorates that lasted a total of just ten years. He is brutally honest about the many ways he failed, and the many things he would now do differently in those early years of ministry.
