Description

In a time when so much popular Christian focus is on the demand for leaders who impress and succeed, the biblical texts on spirituality in difficult circumstances provide much needed perspectives, direction and encouragement both for personal life and public ministry. Dr. Hestenes's four-part series will draw upon various Exodus as narratives as well as from the Psalms of lament to illumine contemporary thems and resources for the spiritual life of pastors. / We live in a postmodern, post-Christian and neo-pagan world. The clue to worship, spirituality and leadership in this new world is found in the way early Christians brought God's story to life in the ancient pre-modern, pre-Christian and pagan world of the Roman culture. Dr. Webber's three-part series will explore what we can learn from the ancient church that is formative for leadership in the new world. (We live in a postmodern, post-Christian, and neo-pagan world.
