Images Of Ministry
$16.18
Why does ministry in the church so often resemble dull prose rather than sparkling poetry?
How do we handle always getting top billing and being at center stage in the drama of parish life?
What is the truth in Flannery O’Connor’s observation that ministers should go about their work like “experienced crooks”?
Can we really carry the treasure of the Gospel in the always fragile, sometimes broken clay pots that are our lives?
How do we get through the “night duty,” both literal and figurative, that is inevitable in ministry?
These are among the questions Stuempfle addresses in these reflections on a series of arresting images for public ministry in the church. Among them are such fresh metaphors for ministry as “poets,” “spies,” “stars,” “nightwatchers,” and “thieves.” They are offered as a lens through which pastors and others in church vocations can gain a new perspective on their complex and demanding calling.

Simply Jesus : A New Vision Of Who He Was What He Did And Why He Matters
$15.99In Simply Jesus, bestselling author and leading Bible scholar N.T. Wright summarizes 200 years of modern Biblical scholarship and models how Christians can best retell the story of Jesus today.

For believers confronting the challenge of connecting with their faith today, and for readers of Timothy Keller’s The Reason for God, Wright’s Simply Jesus offers a provocative new picture of how to understand who Jesus was and how Christians should relate to him today.
