The Church of England is its parishes-for clergy & lay people alike, Christianity is lived out in the context of a parish with a community, congregation, building and a priest. This immensely useful resource reflects on many aspects of parish ministry: pastoral care, liturgy, art and the sacred space, spirituality, youth, regeneration, and the multicultural parish, and more. A vital guide for students, clergy and lay church leaders, it was conceived in response to 'Anglicanism: the answer to Modernity'(Continuum), a book by academics giving an ivory-tower view. This is intended as a real help for the real work of running a parish and to enable theological reflection at local level.

    The Good Book Stall

    Average rating of0.0

    Written from the perspective of urban ministry (Woolwich, London), this book may seem to have little to offer the rural clergy – except to emphasise the gulf between urban and rural. Don’t dismiss it! The collective wisdom here is relevant in different ways to all clergy and some chapters are hugely encouraging: ‘Purposefully Going: The Parish as a community in Mission’ and ‘Travelling Towards Faith: Evangelism in the Parish’ would be manna to clergy allergic to the ‘E’ word. The glossary would be a great gift in itself to those needing a clear understanding of church jargon.
