Description
Sowing Seeds: Essentials for Small Christian Leaders offers a comprehensive collection of pastoral insights and practical suggestions to help small community leaders guide their groups in a way that nourishes spiritual growth. Culled from RENEW International’s three decades of experience in pioneering and promoting small Christian communities, this book overflows with simple but effective ideas and strategies that will enhance the way these groups reflect on and respond to the gospel.
If Sowing Seeds did no more than recommend how we as 21st century Christians might learn to listen to one another more effectively with vulnerability, acceptance, expectancy, and constancy, it would be well-worth the read, but this is only one contribution Sowing Seeds provides ... The experiential knowledge contained in this guidebook is but so many seeds the authors sow in the waiting soil of leaders’ hearts. I am confident that leaders and potential leaders of small Christian communities will find in this resource book the confidence, reassurance, skill, and inspiration they seek to serve their small community and the Church lovingly, wisely, and well.
