The Art of PastoringDr. Sorenson draws from from his father and grandfather over a century of experience in the ministry of Baptist churches. To that he adds more than 30 years of his own in the ministry. These many years have taught him the truth and power of a few simple, yet vital New Testament principles for pastoring. The Art of Pastoring makes refreshing reading for the seasoned pastor, as well as inspiring instruction for the young pastor or ministerial student

Dr. Sorenson draws from from his father and grandfather over a century of experience in the ministry of Baptist churches. To that he adds more than 30 years of his own in the ministry. These many years have taught him the truth and power of a few simple, yet vital New Testament principles for pastoring.

The Art of Pastoring makes refreshing reading for the seasoned pastor, as well as inspiring instruction for the young pastor or ministerial student — several Christian colleges even use it as a text book.

The Art of Pastoring recognizes the importance of preaching and church administration, but focuses instead on a frequent area of weakness, pastoring people. “Without a question, it is crucial for a pastor to be skilled in preaching and in the program management of a local church. However, if he does not pastor his people, his ministry will neither be happy nor long in one place.”

“It is the goal of this book to share the principles contained in the Scripture which pertain to pastoring people.”

We call him Armie! Dog loves it.
Color: Blue, Size: 14 IN
The dog loves it! Routinely carries it around squeaking all the way. The squeak is more like a quack and makes everyone giggle. It’s nice and big so a good match for our tall dog. Probably too big though for smaller dogs. Holding up well so far and that’s no mean feat given our pup’s destruction skills.

The chewability of this toy from 1-10 is a 10 all day 👍🏻
Color: Gray, Size: 8 IN
I have a Boston Terrier and he’s a serious extreme CHEWER! He loves this Hollypet Plush Dog Squeaky Toy Stuffed Armadillo! My doh gnaws on the tail, legs, the ears and the nose and all are still in tact. He’s had it for what I consider a long time. Usually he rips toys apart in the first day but this has been months! I throw this in the washing machine with his other stuffed animal toys simply because the ears, noses and tail get so stiff from chewing on them they need to be washed and they bounce right back just like new. Chewability from 1-10 is a 10 all day long! He plays with it a for a long while each time he uses it. Very active with his Armadillo and it’s so cute and the squeaker is just right, it’s not that loud screaming squeak. If he ever lost this or it got destroyed somehow? I’d buy him this all over again. Worth the money!

Fun dog toy, but not for heavy chewers
Color: Pink, Size: 14 IN
The armadillo is cute. My pittie, Sasha, was very excited to see it. She just had TPLO surgery on her left knee (she tore her ACL just before the 4th of July), and I wanted to get her something she could play with while she convalesces, that isn't a ball—she really likes to run and jump and chase the ball, but with her knee out of commission, I didn't want her to get depressed being trapped in her crate while she heals—with this toy, she was able to keep playing and not over excert herself and get more hurt. It quickly became her favorite toy; she chews it relentlessly and gets made when I take it from her (see below). It makes a funky squeak that's not a high-pitched squeak, like I thought it would be; it's more a low-pitched, lowing sound like a baby calf. One thing I would like to point out to other purchasers about what the description says: "Durable and Long Lasting - Made from premium soft materials, our cute plush dog toys can withstand rough play for indoor or outdoor and last for years to come. The textured surface also helps massage and soothe your dog's gums during playtime" This is a little misleading. It's a good texture and Sasha loved to play with it, but it wasn't very durable. It might be when compared to other chew toys, but not for my baby. She tore the nose off within 20 minutes of getting it. The next morning, she ripped off an ear, and I had to pull the stuffing out of the face so she wouldn't eat it while chewing away. She doesn't seem to mind, but I sure wish it had held up a little more. All-in-all, this was a good toy for a few days.

These are the best balls ever! We have 2 very active ball loving dogs and these bounce very well and they actually hold up with active play and chewing. They still look brand new after daily use for months!

Finally a ball my power chewers cannot destroy
Size: Medium
I have two dogs, an American Bully and an American Pit Bull Terrier, and both of them love to chew. Most balls last a very short time around here before they are shredded or missing big chunks. This one has actually held up. They chase it, tug on it and sit and chew on it, and it is still in one piece with no pieces breaking off. One of my favorite things is being able to put food inside. I add some kibble or small snacks, and they will happily sit and work on it for a long time. It keeps them busy, gives them something safe to chew, and they get a little reward while they play. When they are done, I just rinse it out and it is ready to go again. If you have strong jawed dogs that usually destroy toys, this ball is worth trying. Mine really enjoy it and I feel better knowing they finally have a ball that can keep up with them.
