Perspectives on Family Ministry by Timothy Paul Jones
Every church is called to some form of family ministry, but this calling requires far more than adding another program to an already-packed schedule. The most effective family ministries refocus every church process to engage parents in discipling their children and to draw family members together instead of pulling them apart. In this second edition, Jones expands the definition of family ministry, and broadens the book's focus to address urban perspectives and family ministry in diverse settings.
Dr. R. Timothy Jones is married to the former Sherbrina Trammel and the father of three fine children: Timothy, Titus, and Mauri. He has been the pastor of the Peaceful Rest Baptist Church (The Family of Faith) in Shreveport, Louisiana since November 1994. The summer 2008 issue of The African American Pulpit cited Dr. Jones as one of Twenty to Watch. He earned a Doctor of Ministry from Virginia Union University in May 2009, and is a former dean of the National Baptist Convention of America. He currently serves as president of the Baptist Missionary and Educational State Convention of Louisiana, and is a fellow of the Black Theology and Leadership Institute of Princeton Theological Seminary. One of his joys is teaching, as he is also an adjunct professor at Jarvis Christian College. Dr. Jones lives by three daily affirmations: To thyself be true, to God be faithful, and to others be kind.
