Learning to lie down beside cool waters

Terry Pruitt looks at the role of church leaders in maturing the flock and shares a few insights about poetry, counseling, church music, and leading by example:

Could it be that the emphasis on counseling methods has led our shepherds away from some of the tools that could really help the flock “to lay down beside the cool waters”? Could it be that we need more poets and less couches to set our hearts to love the savior more and worry less?

Good questions.
