Leading the Congregation

Caring for Yourself While Serving the People

By: Norman Shawchuck,Roger Heuser

Leading the Congregation is a complete and definitive guide to the practice of church leadership. The book describes essential paradigms for the leader that integrate spiritual integrity and service within a "systems" view of the congregation and its ministry. This revised and updated version focuses on the challenges of congregational leadership in a culture that has fewer ties to Christian faith. The authors lay out the dual contexts in which church leaders must function–within the congregation, and as the congregation’s representative to the community–and they explain the very different skill sets required to flourish in each. Underlying the revised edition is an insistence on the congregational leader’s call from God, and cultivation of her or his relationship with God. Leadership is not the same thing as charisma, they explain; it is rather a set of attitudes and practices that each of us can and must master if we are to be worthy servants of Christ.

30 Meditations on the Writings of C.S. Lewis

30 Daily Reflections

By: Bishop Rueben P. Job,Norman Shawchuck,Perry Bramlett

A number of years ago, friends and coauthors Bishop Rueben P. Job, Perry Bramlett, and Norman Shawchuck created together a spiritual reader pairing a collection of quotes from beloved author C.S. Lewis with their own unique spiritual reflections. After their deaths, their work was recovered and Abingdon is excited to share this story and this beautiful book posthumously with those looking for daily inspiration from excellent and thoughtful Christian writing. 30 Meditations on the Writings of C. S. Lewis combines three strong spiritual voices writing on topics of grief, joy, fear, loss, salvation, and love for today’s readers inspired by quotes from C.S. Lewis. The collection of thirty devotions begins each day with a short quote from Lewis followed by a reflection from Job, Bramlett, or Shawchuck in a beautifully designed book. This collection is perfect for starting any time of the year and is an excellent gift for the C.S. Lewis fan in your life.
