The bestselling writer and popular broadcaster Sam Wells reflects on the essence of discipleship and Christian ministry today. Believing that ministry is essentially about ‘being with’ the other, whether that is God, the church, friends or strangers, he explores the theme of ‘being with’ in a variety of contexts.
The bestselling writer and popular broadcaster Sam Wells reflects theologically and practically on the essence of discipleship and Christian ministry today. Those in ministry, like Jesus, are called to the task of ‘being with’: with God, with the church, with the created world and those who live in it.
Incarnational Ministry explores the concept of ‘being with’ in eight dimensions: presence, attention, mystery, delight, participation, partnership, enjoyment and glory. It challenges readers to deeper discipleship and more vital ministry as they explore what it means to be with the troubled, the hurt, the afflicted and the dying – and all who are embraced by the Church’s incarnational ministry.
