Mission-Shaped Parish by Paul Bayes
Did the realist in you read Mission-Shaped Church and think ‘how can our ordinary church aspire to this?’ If so, this book is for you. Mission-Shaped Parish looks at the bread-and-butter things that churches regularly do, through the lens of mission. It takes a fresh look at a typical parish church’s worship, pastoral contacts, civic and public responsibilities, faith nurturing opportunities, its administration and government – and creatively points to how all of this can be seen from the point of view God’s mission.
"A practical book: how to make Mission-shaped Church real in your parishReadable, realistic, realizable." - John Finney, Former Bishop of Pontefract and one of the authors of Emmaus - the Way of Faith
