That lay women and men increasingly serve as leaders of
institutional ministries in the Church is nothing new. Yet, until
now, these lay leaders have longed for theological resources and
formational training to help them in their vocation and ministry.
Called and Chosen: Toward a Spirituality for Lay Leaders is
designed especially for women and men who, in collaboration with
vowed religious and the ordained, shepherd Church ministries and
touch the lives of countless people. Written by leading authorities
in biblical studies, theology, spirituality, church history, and
ecclesial leadership, the book is broken into four parts: Part one
invites lay leaders to claim their own call and commitment by
reflecting on the Catholic vision of spirituality, vocation,
mission and ministry, and the experiences of other leaders. Part
two grounds their work in the larger story of our institutional
ministries by examining their biblical, theological, and historical
roots. Part three probes the work of the Spirit in communities and
institutions, against the backdrop of contemporary cultural
realities, to help leaders develop the capacity to discern the
Spirit's workings. Part four focuses on issues central to the role
of a spiritual leader: the spirituality of administration, the task
of building community, the use of power and authority and work of
forming and mentoring others. Questions at the end of each chapter
invite further reflection on the themes explored.
