Como Usar El Humor En El Minis – (Spanish)
$10.99
The author’s mission in this book is to break with classical paradigms that discourage the use of laughter and humor as incompatible with the serious nature of the gospel. This material is the product of in-depth research into the history of the Bible, presented in a format that is easily absorbed by any reader. Since the Middle Ages and the Reformation, the Christian church has emphasized spiritual practices such as prayer, praise, devotional reading, and Biblical studies as the pillars of spirituality. But there is another element that hidden there in the inkwell and which appears in the Scriptures themselves over and over again. The laughter, the joy, and the sense of humor constitute an important part of the faith. This book also delivers practical advice about how to articulate humor and laughter in your ministerial work. Something unique about this book is the way it interacts with the Biblical texts, looking at the background of many familiar stories, and finding a sense of humor that was very relevant for the original reader. He also delivers clear information about how to take your first steps toward developing the art of creating humor.

Being A Chaplain
$16.99Add to cartChaplaincy – a place for those who have sold out, can’t hack church ministry and don’t believe in mission? Against the negative stereotypes, this book argues that chaplains are a valuable resource to the Church. Embedded in places as diverse as prisons, hospitals, educational establishments and the armed forces, chaplains often encounter social trends well in advance of the institutional churches. Their experiences and expertise can be very helpful for thinking about ministry, ecclesiology and the engagement with contemporary society. The first five parts of this book gather together stories of 22 chaplains working in a wide variety of contexts and from a range of Christian churches. The final part consists of four essays on key themes: multi-faith issues; the core skills needed by a chaplain; models of chaplaincy; and tensions that can arise in the work. This book is for chaplains, students, clergy and all those who are considering becoming a chaplain or have dealings with people in the role. It will be of considerable interest to anyone who wonders what exactly chaplains do, how and why they do it and what the churches can learn from their experiences.
