    Product Description

    This is a practical how-to guide introducing new, mission-shaped practices in a traditional parish setting. This book looks at the church's bread-and-butter activities - worship, pastoral contacts, civic and public responsibilities, faith formation, administration and leadership - and creatively points out how to reframe them with a focus on God's mission. Paul Bayes is the Church of England's National Missioner. Tim Sledge is the Missioner Enable in Peterborough. John Holbrook is Rector of Wimborne Minster in Dorset. Mark Rylands is Director of the Council for Mission and Unity for Exeter Diocese. Martin Seeley is Principal of Westcott House. "The Mission-shaped Series is a God-send, literally. Every congregation on both sides of the Atlantic, be they Anglican or Episcopalian, liturgical or evangelical, should delve into these books immediately and thoughtfully and, above all else, prayerfully." -Phyllis Tickle, author of The Great Emergence: How Christianity Is Changing and Why "For the church in this moment, nothing could be more important than turning from our internal anxieties to look for the ways God is at work in the world. This book invites us to trust that God uses ordinary churches and their ordinary ministries in God's project of restoring all creation. Read it." -Jeffrey Lee, Bishop of the Diocese of Chicago You may also like: Mission-shaped Church: Church Planting and Fresh Expressions Archbishop's Council on Mission and Public Affairs More Details Mission-shaped Questions: Defining Issues for Today's Church Steven Croft, editor More Details Mission-shaped Spirituality: The Transforming Power of Mission Susan Hope More Details
