Embodying a Theology of Ministry and Leadership

Embodying a Theology of Ministry and Leadership-This book seeks to bring together a person's spiritual vitality in Christ with practical expressions of service, care, and deepening relationships with others. It provides practical steps on how to listen well to God's specific call, develop the art of theological reflection, and apply various leadership perspectives to different contexts. Throughout, Scripture is used to provide a scaffold on which to build ministry and leadership principles that can bring coherence and effectiveness to complex and often confusing situations. Bruce G.
