Description: |
It takes a whole church frog - head (leadership), torso (body), and legs (home) - to raise persons of faith in a world in need of God. "Frogs without Legs Can't Hear: Nurturing Discipleship in Home and Congregation" challenges church professionals and volunteers to shift the center of faith formation from the congregation to a shared center involving the home and ministry in daily life. Drawing on five principles that define the congregation, home partnership, and four key faith practices that promote faith development, David W. Anderson and Paul Hill have written a timely and provocative book keenly suited to ministry in the twenty-first century. "This is a book all pastors and congregational leaders need to read, digest, and use as a primary resource for helping pass on the Christian faith to the next generations. Every congregation can benefit from the guidance this book offers for walking with the 'children in their hands' on the journey of life and faith." from the review by Bishop Paul J. Blom, Texas - Louisiana Gulf Coast Synod, ELCA. |
