The New Testament writers set before us a number of models of
ministry, each of which is shaped by the particular needs of the
churches they were serving. Their own backgrounds, ambitions and
passions also contribute to what they have to say about ministry.
The contours of New Testament pastoral leadership, inspired by the
Holy Spirit, exhibit a genuine diversity that finds its unity in
Christ and his gospel. Derek Tidball provides a comprehensive
survey of these models and patterns. By 'ministry', he has in mind
primarily 'full-time' or 'professional' ministry, although his
analysis is relevant to others who exercise ministry on a more
occasional basis. For Tidball, the terms 'ministry' and
'leadership', or 'pastoral leadership', are interchangeable. His
main focus in this volume is on pastoral leadership within local
churches or groups of churches. Tidball's survey offers 'models of
permission' that enable a freer approach to ministry and the way it
is conducted, challenges the stunted understanding of ministry that
can often characterize our churches today, and gives encouragement
to those who do not fit a 'ministry by numbers' approach.
Well-grounded in the relevant scholarship, Tidball's fresh
engagement with the biblical texts, stimulating analysis and wise
application will be of value to all who are established in pastoral
leadership, or training for it.
