Description

The Other Six Days: Vocation, Work, and Ministry in Biblical PerspectiveThroughout history the church has been composed of two types of people those who "do" ministry and those to whom it is "done." In this provocative book R. Paul Stevens shows that the clergy laity division has no basis in the New Testament and challenges all Christians to rediscover what it means to live daily as God's people. Exploring the theological, structural, and cultural reasons for treating laypeople as the objects of ministry, Stevens argues

Throughout history the church has been composed of two types of people-those who "do" ministry and those to whom it is "done." In this provocative book R. Paul Stevens shows that the clergy-laity division has no basis in the New Testament and challenges all Christians to rediscover what it means to live daily as God's people. Exploring the theological, structural, and cultural reasons for treating laypeople as the objects of ministry, Stevens argues against the idea of clericalism. All Christians are called to live in faith, hope, and love, and to do God's work in the church and world. This biblical perspective has serious implications for the existing attitudes and practices of many churches as well as for our understanding of ministry. Stevens shows that the task of churches today is to equip people for ministry in their homes, workplaces, and neighborhoods. Written by a scholar and pastor well known as an active advocate for the whole people of God, this thought-provoking book-made even more useful with the inclusion of case studies and study questions at the end of each chapter-offers inspiring reading for anyone interested in what the Christian life holds for the other six days of the week.

Fantastic build quality, fantastic price
Color: Cream White
I needed something fast for a chicken and dumplings recipe. Everything in store was outrageously expensive for the size I needed. Got on amazon and found this guy. Nice and large and build quality is excellent. Zero imperfections in the enamel. Heats evenly and is a dream to cook in, nothing sticks easy cleaning. For the price (about 50% less then anything in store) was an absolute deal. Highly recommended. Just a heads up tho...this thing is heavy. I dont think its heavier then a similar sized enamel cast iron dutch oven tho.

Great value and great quality
Color: Cream White
Excellent heavy-duty quality and it looks great sitting out on my stovetop. I've prepared several meals plus baked bread in the oven in this and it's easy to clean and holding up really well. Very reasonably priced too!
