    • The Contemplative Response

    The true self finds peace in resting in the love of God, in the peace which Jesus promises. Jesus says to each of us in ministry, 'As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Abide, rest, dwell, in my love' (John 15:9).

    This book will seek to show what this might mean for those in Christian ministry in the 21st century.

    Following on from the success of The Contemplative Minister, Ian Cowley offers new insight and greater depth for Church leaders in a distracted world.

    He emphasises that the true self finds peace in resting in the love of God and encourages ministers to minister to themselves as well as to others, ensuring that, in the peace which Jesus promises, their spiritual lives don't run dry amid the pressures of the job.

    A must-read for contemplative leaders wanting to stay the course.

    • The Contemplative Minister

    Eugene Peterson's bestselling book The Contemplative Pastor has helped many church leaders to keep a strong spiritual centre to ministry as they are engulfed by the busyness of church life.

    The church landscape has now moved on considerably since Peterson's book was published 20 years ago, both in the USA and the UK. Electronic media, multi-parish appointments and the ever increasing stress and demands of modern-day ministry have continued to challenge church leaders aggressively. Today, many are looking for a different way of being in ministry, a better way of serving Christ than the relentless busyness and pressure that have become the norm. But how?

    Ian Cowley, Coordinator of Vocations and Spirituality in Salisbury Diocese, offers direction for contemplative leaders in the 21st century, drawing on his South African roots and the influence of contemplative leaders such as Desmond Tutu. He explains practically how to prioritise a relationship with God and lead others into that relationship, creating a shared ministry to allow the leader to nurture faith and spirituality amid the hectic life that is ministry today
