Married to the Cloth

This book came at a timely moment, 2 yrs into a new position, while still working for the first congregation( for 6 yrs), we were wondering where we were at, are we going the right direction, attendance has doubled so "now what?". I am sure this is common across the board no matter how long you have been in ministry. All too often we try to create something new, or do something that catches the attention of those outside the "building", rather than make sure the inside is healthy and thriving. What we need is inner growth, discipleship, and strengthening those who are attending. Thankfully Randy Pope has gone before us and is sharing his experience and knowledge with the rest of us. After reading this book, we have gained encouragement for what we have done and been nudged to do more. I highly recommend this book.
