The search for authentic faith experience begins with God's yearning for us.Transforming grace, scriptural holiness, and the priesthood of all believers are key to fulfilling our postmodern world's search for an authentic experience of the Christian faith. For pastors and church leaders, especially, the Wesleyan/Arminian tradition is well suited to give new skills and perspectives to be in mission and ministry today.Contributors include: Meesaeng Lee Choi, Joel B. Green, Jeffrey E. Greenway, Charles E. Guterson, Steve Harper, Howard A. Snyder, and Robert G. Tuttle Jr.An excerpt from the Circuit Rider review: Grace and Holiness in a Changing World "comes to the fore to explore what the Wesleyan theological tradition can offer the ministry of the church at the beginning of a new millennium. . . . This book can move persons within the Wesleyan tradition toward the kind of holy conversation the church needs to have at this moment in history." (Click here to read the entire review.)

Foresters tell us that some trees need to die in order to free needed nutrients and space to grow for the other trees around them. Yet cutting down these trees risks damage to their neighbors. So the foresters will “ring” the unwanted trees, cutting one or two rings deep into the tree’s base, causing them to die slowly, freeing resources for the other trees without endangering them. In the same way discerning congregational leaders will identify programs and structures that need to go away, in order to free resources for other, more important ministries. yet rather than take a chainsaw to the outmoded programs (angering people and endangering the ministries that matter), these leaders understand how to gradually shift focus away from them. Do you want to become such a leader? Do you want to know how to bring about significant change without instituting a “slash and burn” policy? Then this book is for you!
