Synopsis

Drawing together original research which weaves together ideas from theology, philosophy, feminism and writing on mothering and child development, Percy affirms and encourages aspects of good practice in ministry that are in danger of being overlooked because they are neither well-articulated nor valued. Offering a fresh look at parish ministry, this book uses a maternal metaphor to provide an integrated image of being and doing.
