As a pastor, do you ever get the feeling that no matter what you
try, nothing much seems to change? That is because the ministries
themselves are not redemptive--they are not up to you. Only Jesus'
ministry is redemptive. Jesus has to "show up." Theologian Andrew
Purves explores at the deepest level the true and essential nature
of Christian ministry. He says that the attempt to be an effective
minister is a major problem. Ministers are "in the way." He
radically claims that ministries need to be crucified. They need to
be killed off so that Christ can make them live. Rooting church
service in Christ's own continuing ministry, Purves provides a
vision for students and practicing clergy to reclaim the vital
connection between Christ and participation in his ministry today,
even if it means letting Christ put to death the ministries to
which pastors cling so closely. A radical appraisal for a critical
malady affecting the life of the Christian church written in plain,
down-to-earth language.
