Ministry Nuts and Bolts

Many pastoral training programs have neglected four foundational ministry concepts--values, mission, vision, and strategy. Pastors and congregations often fail to agree upon a set of core values that provide unity. A lack of direction indicates a corresponding lack of mission. And a church without either core values or mission will lack both a vision and a strategy to minister to the surrounding culture. Veteran church planter, pastor, and seminary professor Aubrey Malphurs examines those four vital concepts and demonstrates how to implement them in local church ministry. - book blurb.
