The Rector and the Vestry
There are very few leaders in the Anglican Church in North America who could have written a book as helpful as this. "The Rector and the Vestry" is addresses the needs, challenges, structures, canons, other important issues facing any Anglican Church of any size. Filled with wise counsel, frank discussion, and helpful illustrations, this book should be required reading for all Anglican leaders. Every Rector will want a copy of this book for every member of their Vestry. And every Vestry member will surely want a copy for their Rector.
The Rector, the Vestry, and the Bishop
"The Rector, the Vestry, and the Bishop" gives church leaders a thoughtful and practical guide for understanding roles within Anglican polity. This expanded new edition does a beautiful job of clearly explaining the bishop's role and relationship to parish leadership. It is an essential guide to govern and grow healthy Anglican congregations.
The Psalm on the Cross
A Journey to the Heart of Jesus through Psalm 22 "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" These haunting words were spoken by no less than Jesus Christ as he died on the cross. But they were written centuries before by King David of Israel. They are the opening words of Psalm 22. What did Jesus mean by this passionate pleading question? Did Jesus have the entire psalm in mind? Did God really forsake Jesus? Did Jesus die knowing that His mission was accomplished? How can Psalm 22 help us understand the heart and mind of Jesus? Join David H. Roseberry on a journey to the heart of Jesus through Psalm 22. You'll grow closer to Jesus and draw strength for your own journey by taking a closer look at Christ's song of suffering and victory. David H. Roseberry has been an ordained Anglican minister for 40 years. He was the founding Rector of Christ Church in Plano, Texas for over 30 years. Now he is the Executive Director of LeaderWorks serving churches and church leaders. The Psalm on the Cross is his fourth book.
The Living Church
None
Wisdom from Lyle E. Schaller
One poll declared him the most influential American church leader of the last 100 years. Lyle E. Schaller has written literally millions of words of insight and advice for church leaders. His books alone number nearly 60 titles and span 40 years of publication, beginning in 1964. Now, this single volume makes available his best insights, organized by topic and framed with fascinating background perspective of Schaller himself. This volume both introduces Schaller to a new generation of church leaders and is a handy resource for those who grew up on Schaller's writing and count him as a major ministry influence.
Giving Up
Generosity is the two-thousand-year-old secret weapon that conquered the first-century world. The author demonstrates the power of unselfish giving to propel the message of Christ throughout a culture obsessed with ¿selfie theology¿ and offers a fresh, thoroughly biblical, deeply theological alternative to the latest theories of discipleship and church growth.
The Ordinary Ways of God
The Scriptures ask us to think about God differently than primarily a miracle worker. They invite us to imagine God's presence and activity in our ordinary, day-to-day lives. To ask, seek, and find God in the most common areas of life is the hallmark of being a believer in God and a disciple of Jesus Christ. The Book of Ruth perfectly demonstrates this reality. It is a beautiful story of regular people finding their way through life on a day-by-day basis. As they live out their days, they discover the presence of God guiding, correcting, and providing for them along the way. God is everywhere in The Book of Ruth, but He never appears. He is a constant redeeming force, but He never speaks. God is the director of this fantastic and crucial story in the Bible, but He never forces anything to happen. He does not command, rebuke, or push. In ways both wonderful and ordinary, God simply allows people to make decisions while guiding them with a gentle hand.
The Accidental Anglican
Many are longing for historical connectedness and for theology that is 'not tied to the whims of contemporary culture, but to apostolic-era understandings of Christian faith and practice.' They also yearn for rhythms and routines that build spiritual health. Still others are responding to a call to participate in worship rather than merely sitting back and looking at a stage. Liturgy offers all of this and more. Todd D Hunter bucked the trend by joining the Anglican church. He traces his remarkable journey from an upbringing in the Jesus Movement, to spearheading Vineyard ministries in the US, through heading up Alpha USA and now embracing a liturgical church, where he is now bishop. His compelling story is told with humility and humour.
