Reviews for Explore: Vocational Discovery in Ministry

""""The book is accessible, gritty, and honest. It raises good conversation on the multiplicity of vocation and represents the complexity of life, vocation, and constructed meaning that we, in religious and ministerial circles, have known and navigated for some time. Vocation, in this context, is a complicated conversation and we have the beneficial wisdom of this diverse group of authors to articulate this complexity for us in this truth-telling and thought-provoking project."""" --Mark Chung Hearn, PhD, Associate Professor and Director of Contextual Education at Church Divinity School of the Pacific in Berkeley, CA """"Diversity of perspectives makes this volume useful for anyone discerning their vocational call to ministry. Readable and relatable, the authors share deeply personal stories of call, from traditional congregational ministry to spiritual, entrepreneurial enterprises. Bold and prophetic, the activity of the Holy Spirit is imbued in the poetry and prose. The church would do well to think about vocation and ministry in such a comprehensive manner."""" --Susan MacAlpine-Gillis, Coordinator of the Summer Distance program and Assistant Professor of Pastoral Theology at Atlantic School of Theology
