The Traveling Minister's Handbook
The need for successful traveling ministers is greater now than ever before. As an individual accepts his or her calling to minister the gospel, there are some important principles and practices one must adhere to in order to ensure they maximize their efforts in fulfilling the Great Commission. There have been hundreds, if not thousands of men and women who have been called to ministry and falter along the way as a result of not knowing how to structure their ministry and develop it into an organization that is built to last. With over sixteen years developing my own itinerant ministry, this book is a collection of experiences and thoughts beneficial for anyone interested in developing a th...

Transnational Religious Organization and Practice
In Transnational Religious Organization and Practice Stanley John provides the first in-depth analysis of a migrant Christian community in the Arabian Gulf. The book explores how Kerala (South India) Pentecostal churches in Kuwait organize and practice their Christian faith, given the status of their congregants as temporary economic migrants and noting that the transient status heightens their transnational orientation toward their homeland in India. The research follows a twofold agenda: first, examining the unique sociopolitical and migrational context within which the KPCs function, and second, analyzing the transnational character and structural patterns that have emerged in this context. The ethnographic research identifies and analyzes the emerging structures and practices of the KPCs through three lenses: networks, agents, and mission. This study concludes with a proposal for an interdisciplinary theoretical framework to be employed in the study of transnational religious communities.
Beyond the Pulpit
In the formative years of the Methodist Church in the United States, women played significant roles as proselytizers, organizers, lay ministers, and majority members. Although women's participation helped the church to become the nation's largest denomination by the mid-nineteenth century, their official roles diminished during that time. In Beyond the Pulpit, Lisa Shaver examines Methodist periodicals as a rhetorical space to which women turned to find, and make, self-meaning. In 1818, Methodist Magazine first published "memoirs" that eulogized women as powerful witnesses for their faith on their deathbeds. As Shaver observes, it was only in death that a woman could achieve the status of mi...
