In the English-speaking Western world alone, thousands of men and
women begin formal training for Christian ministry each year or
informally seek to equip themselves for pastoral ministry. Over the
past fifty years, the ancient world of virtue ethics has been
re-imagined as a means of forming people of character and morality
today. In Shaped for Service, this experience is used as the
framework to understand what we are doing as we form Christian
ministers now, and how we might strengthen that development by more
consciously linking the practices of ministry with the person,
spirituality, and wisdom of the practitioner. Writing from the
context of a lifetime of pastoral ministry and the oversight of
ministers in the Baptist Union of Great Britain, Goodliff explores
what pastors do and who they are called to be using a mixture of
theological and pastoral enquiry, reflections upon art and personal
story. This book will be of interest to those who are charged with
forming the next generation of ministers, but anyone beginning that
journey of formation for ministry themselves will also find this
vision of ministry challenging and inspiring.
