God Will Make a Way
Author: Bishop Kenneth H. Carter Jr.
Publisher: Abingdon Press
ISBN: 1791007147
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 237
Book Description
In God Will Make a Way, Bishop Ken Carter shares reflections from his journey from the 2016 General Conference, through his leadership in The Way Forward, his role as Presiding Bishop, into the special 2019 Conference, and the postponed 2020 General Conference in the midst of a pandemic. The book is both a spiritual journey and an inside view of one of the most tumultuous periods of national and denominational history. Carter casts his personal spiritual reflections against a backdrop of life-shaping events: the first Way Forward meetings, the tragedy at Mother Emmanuel, interactions with Kenneth Feinberg, Jurgen Moltmann, and others, the Pulse and Parkland shootings, and more. Throughout, the high points are experiences and conversations between people, often from dramatically different stances, who find common ground, new understanding, and hope while the dark times are from conflict-inspired anger, national violence, and shaken hope.

A Theological and Practical Model for the Appointment of a New Lead Pastor in an Established Church
Author: David S. Huffstutler
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Baptists
Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
This thesis began by surveying pastoral appointments in church history and arguing for pastoral appointment within the context of Baptist congregationalism. The primary argument was that pastors should lead their churches by developing a process to appoint their next lead pastor. From the perspective of the lead pastor, this process involves training pastors, appointing one of these pastors as the church's next lead pastor, and transitioning out of one's role as lead pastor.

Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 203
Book Description
Transformative Pastoral Leadership in the Black Church offers practical wisdom from comparative analysis of the experiences of a male pastor and a female pastor in the Christian Methodist Episcopal Church. Church leaders must be transformed themselves as they are transforming their churches to serve their communities. From his research of the perspectives of laity, clergy, and scholars of the black church, Jeffery L. Tribble offers hopeful stories and helpful strategies for those who believe that the black church must continue its historic mission of being an instrument of survival, elevation, and liberation for its people.

Meeting God at the Boundaries: A Manual for Church Leaders
Author: Lucia Ann McSpadden
Publisher: United Methodist General Board of Higher Education
ISBN: 9780938162605
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
In Meeting God at the Boundaries: Cross-Cultural-Cross-Racial Clergy Appointments (2003), Lucia Ann McSpadden offered a penetrating analysis of the struggles as well as the joys and opportunities experienced by persons engaged in cross-cultural-cross-racial ministry in The United Methodist Church. Soon after the book was published, it became apparent that a volume was needed that would offer the various individuals and groups involved in this ministry hands-on, practical understanding, skills, and competencies for serving in cross-cultural-cross-racial ministry. Meeting God at the Boundaries: A Manual for Church Leaders fills that need. It provides succinct summaries of the basic concepts and competencies in cross-cultural-cross-racial understanding and communication. It then offers practical exercises and tools for equipping key leaders and groups involved in this ministry-clergy, their spouses and families, staff-parish relations committees, district superintendents and bishops-to carry out this ministry effectively and faithfully.
