De Pastor A Pastor – (Spanish)
$14.99
The contemporary church needs a spiritual revival in the life of its pastors and leaders; may they love God more than personal success; may they study the Word in depth and feed the people with healthy spiritual nutrition; may they life in prayer and serve as examples of piety for the flock. Pastors who give life to the sheep rather than exploit the flock; who do not bend to pragmatism nor sell their consciences for money or success. Faithful pastors, not popular pastors; broken men and not famous men. Pastors who understand their mission and value their work. As C.H. Spurgeon said: ‘My children, if the Queen of England invited you to become an ambassador to any country of the world, do not step down and stop being an ambassador of the King of kings and Lord of lords.’ This is not a book of criticism. On the contrary, the purpose of ‘From Pastor to Pastor’ is to reconcile the advice of great men of God with their experiences, with the conclusion that before pastoring other people, the pastor must pastor himself. A short, but very comprehensive and well-written work about the pastoral ministry, whose conclusion is: ‘The Church needs pastors who smell like sheep.’

Sharing Gods Blessing
$15.99A tried-and-tested resource for the renewal of the local church. Faced with the unsustainability of many inherited patterns of church, the temptation may be to fall into despondency rather than seeking to regenerate patterns of mission and ministry. This book is the result of a two-year research project aimed at enabling local churches to regain a sense of confidence through exploring God’s blessing and how that might be shared with the communities they serve. In Part One, Robin explores the meaning of blessing and the power of face-to-face group conversations to transform church congregations. Part Two of the book contains outlines for five guided conversations for change on the theme of blessing. Part Three contains case study material of how this material has been used in different contexts, including for Mission Action Planning (MAP).

Being A Chaplain
$16.99Chaplaincy – 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.
