For generations most churchgoers have been encouraged to see the
responsibility for the life and mission of the church in the hands
of the trained clergy. A church embracing God's call to mission
requires these same worshippers to see themselves as 'missionary
disciples' with a vital part to play in the church's ministry. How
is a change of this magnitude to be accomplished? Drawing on the
discipline of adult education and his own research into the way
people learn, David Heywood explains how churches can become
learning communities in which people grow as disciples and find
their place in a collaborative pattern of ministry. He challenges
the prevailing approach to ministerial training as overly
theoretical and individualistic, and points towards a model of
training based around shared reflection on practice. Contents:
