KINDLE DEAL: Richard Wills - Waking to God’s Dream ($2.75)
Waking to God’s Dream: Spiritual Leadership and Church Renewal
Author(s): Richard Wills Publisher: Abingdon Press Price: $2.75 The demands of congregational ministry are many, the rewards sometimes seem few, and burnout becomes a real possibility. Small wonder, then, that churches become stuck in a state of arrested spiritual development. When the pastor is functioning in a survival or maintenance mode, the church’s vitality is often the first casualty. Yet Wills’s own experience demonstrates that churches can turn around; the wind of the Spirit can be felt anew. This happens when the congregation is infected by the vision of what God is doing in their midst–a vision which the leaders, particularly the pastor, must bring before them. In Waking to God’s Dream, Richard Wills shares the spiritual disciplines and insights which he believes account for the transformation of the congregation he serves from a large church in decline to one that is growing and reaching out to its community in a variety of creative ministries. Detailing the steps and initiatives that led to this turnaround, Wills demonstrates how personal commitment on the part of the congregation’s leaders and ministers have been the key to the work they have accomplished. |
