The image of modern preachers has been defaced by scandals in the church, and the role of the pastor has been greatly altered by tradition and false expectations. In 1752, during the time of the Great Awakening, this ordination sermon was preached by John Shaw, based on Jeremiah 3:15, "I will give you pastors after Mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding."
