pastoral leadership skills
Partnering in God’s new future requires spaces to listen. It resists programmes and models and hurries from impatience. It requires attentiveness to the unique contours of the cultural now in people’s lives. It plays with metaphor and possibilities. It lives within a narrative, not its own yet strangely familiar. It is birthed amid a personal attentiveness to my uniqueness, gift mix and personality.

is well worth investing in. (Make sure you order the paperback edition, because the hardcover price is simply ridiculous). The book gathers readings from across the centuries - 20th century, Syriac, Early Greek, Latin, Orthodox, Mystical, and across a rich range of genre - theology texts, sermons, songs, liturgy, even art works. Each reading is helpfully introduced by editor, Eugene Rogers.
