Reseña del libro "Collaborative Ministry; What It Is, How It Works and Why (en Inglés)"
New in this 2016 edition: An additional chapter of new material. Example Team Descriptions.Collaborative Ministry has become a 'buzz phrase' in the church, following on from phrases such as 'every member ministry' and 'the priesthood of all believers'. It is referred to by those who speak and write about leadership, the Church and outreach, but what exactly does it mean? And does it fit with existing leadership structures?This book comprehensively explores the theology and practice of this style of 'being church', considering the implications for churches both large and small. A central section provides foundational Bible studies, unpacking the themes of authority, acceptance and covenant, while an appendix of group study material offers help for churches considering a collaborative approach.Collaborative Ministry; What it is, how it works and why was first published by BRF in 2007. This second edition includes a newly written section for 2016 with an additional chapter of more recent insights and example Team Descriptions.David Robertson is the vicar of Christ Church, South Ossett.
