Exploring the life and calling

By Black, Gary Jr

Subjects: Clergy, Vocation (in religious orders, congregations, etc.), Pastoral theology, Christian education, Appointment, call, and election, Church work, Religious life

Description: In this introductory volume for the series, Black asserts that while the primary subjects of seminary and professional church work training may dominate the interests of students, students must engage in the principal pursuit of understanding, then applying, Christian theology. Black argues that the thread of theology must be distinctly woven through each of the other disciplines of biblical exegesis, ministerial leadership, spiritual formation, counseling, preaching, and worship.
