Cover... Related Items Missions | Here is a resource for Mennonites who wish to reach "beyond the Mennonite comfort zone." The Mennonite church is undergoing historic transitions: New denominational structures, a new vision, a new focus, and a new spirit of mission-mindedness-or as Mennonites now put it, being missional. These exciting changes require rethinking of relationships with each other and with people beyond Mennonite congregations, as Mennonites seek to fulfill the great commission of linking the message of the gospel with needs of surrounding communities. | |

| The Heart of the Matter: Pastoral Ministry in Anabaptist Perspective | View shopping basket | |

paperback, 260 pages, $22.95 | Add... | |

Related Items Anabaptist | Throughout some 500 years of life as a people, Anabaptist-
Mennonites have pioneered their own understandings and practices of
pastoral ministry, rooted in their understandings of the teachings of
Jesus and the Bible. Now in these 14 chapters, writers who have
dedicated themselves to studying and teaching pastoral ministry reflect
on what can be learned from viewing ministry in Anabaptist perspective.
Pondering Anabaptist understandings of such images of the pastor as shepherd, teacher, healer, prophet as well as such issues as leadership, authority, ecclesiology, improvisation, and much more, the authors both affirm the resources for pastoral ministry found in the Anabaptist tradition and suggest areas for growth. They value, for example, the concern for servanthood often found in Anabaptist views of pastoring even as they seek to regain for pastors an authority sometimes lost when servant leadership is overemphasized. This volume will be useful to those with Anabaptist roots interested in rigorous reflection on ministry as understood within their tradition- and also to those rooted in other traditions intrigued by what can be learned from the unique vantage point offered by Anabaptism.

Related Items Theology Worship | With wit and wisdom, Longacare's sermons address currenta dn tough issues of the faith--suffering, judgment, war, violence, family fights, and more. Teh sermons draw deeply from the poignant and pungent perspectives of the Scriptures. Breathing through theses sermons is the updraft of the biblical message and it's vision of salvatioin, compassion, and justice. On any given Sunday morning, a vast arragy of feelings, questions, nopes and fears come with the congregants as they gather in the church pews. can a sermon begin to tough even a few of these? These sermons reveal that when the preacher draws deeply upon the story of the faith and enters imaginatively into biblical text, sparks leap from ancient story to life now lived. of course, not all questions are quickly answered, not all hopes immediately realized, but new possibilities arise, mercy and grace quiet the struggling spirits.
