| Description: |
What does the church look like if we take the ministry of the baptized—the priesthood of all believers—seriously? How are congregations transformed when the church supports and affirms the ministry of all the baptized, particularly in small congregations without the means to hire a seminary-trained pastor? And what ecclesial structures and educational models need to emerge in the next decades to assist these small congregations in the recovery of baptismal living?
Impatient with the model of church that imprisons the gifts of ministry in only a few persons, the authors introduce us to congregations in which many ministries are affirmed, set free, and make possible imaginative participation in God's mission. |
