New directions in ministry

Notes: Cover title.; "[B]y Philip Turner".; "This is the second in a new series of booklets on renewal and evangelism published by Forward Movement in cooperation with the Office of Evangelism of the Executive Council of the Episcopal Church. The first of the series is 'Mission, a plea for theological convictions' by Archbishop Stuart Y. Blanch." -- p. 2.; "'Jesus lives.' 'Burn it.' It is from the perspective of this old woman and from that of Paul that I believe we ought to view the direction and goal of the various ministries of the church. All things are to be brought to the knowledge and love of God through Jesus, his Son. Anything that does not serve this purpose should be changed and anything that cannot serve this purpose should be burned. .... I want to suggest that the abiding pattern of the church's ministry includes five constants: worship, evangelism, service, formation and intercession. It is this pattern that can be used as a lens through which we may view the life of the church and test it for adequacy." -- pp. 6-7.; Contents: [Introduction] -- No Other Gods -- Worship -- Evangelism -- Service -- Formation -- Intercession -- Ecumenism.; A short note "About the author" on inside front cover, p. 2.
