A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

This accessible book outlines basic, practical ways to be and to nurture the church. It is designed to equip Protestant lay leaders to envision, interpret and practice a gospel-driven ministry and mission in contemporary society. Seasoned pastor and theologian John Stewart presents and explains five gospel-infused faithful practices: fellowship, witness, service, education and worship. He argues that these five practices are normative, indispensable, and doable for congregations that seek to remain faithful to their risen Lord and he offers memorable, achievable models of ways that are already being used in current mainline congregations.|This accessible book outlines basic, practical ways to be and to nurture the church.
