Download or read book The History of the Riverside Church in the City of New York written by Peter J. Paris and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2004-05-01 with total page 511 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was from the pulpit of the Riverside Church that Martin Luther King, Jr., first publicly voiced his opposition to the Vietnam War, that Nelson Mandela addressed U.S. church leaders after his release from prison, and that speakers as diverse as Cesar Chavez, Jesse Jackson, Desmond Tutu, Fidel Castro, and Reinhold Niebuhr lectured church and nation about issues of the day. The greatest of American preachers have served as senior minister, including Harry Emerson Fosdick, Robert J. McCracken, Ernest T. Campbell, William Sloane Coffin, Jr., and James A. Forbes, Jr., and at one time the New York Times printed reports of each Sunday's sermon in its Monday morning edition. For seven decades the church has served as the premier model of Protestant liberalism in the United States. Its history represents the movement from white Protestant hegemony to a multiracial and multiethnic church that has been at the vanguard of social justice advocacy, liberation theologies, gay and lesbian ministries, peace studies, ethnic and racial dialogue, and Jewish-Christian relations. A collaborative effort by a stellar team of scholars, The History of the Riverside Church in the City of New York offers a critical history of this unique institution on Manhattan's Upper West Side, including its cultural impact on New York City and beyond, its outstanding preachers, and its architecture, and assesses the shifting fortunes of religious progressivism in the twentieth century.

Download or read book Pastor Staff and Congregational Relationships written by Bernie M. Spooner, Ph.d. and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-02-11 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pastor, Staff, and Congregational Relationships fills the need for a fresh and comprehensive resource for building quality relationships among pastors, church staff leaders, and church members and leaders. Often in this day of fast-paced changes, conflicts arise that might have been avoided if intentional attention were given to relationships. The book has been written by a team of experienced pastors, staff leaders, and laypeople who have demonstrated effectiveness in building healthy churches. The approach of the book is that servant leadership and good personnel administration are essential to quality staff and congregational relationships. Also, this book assumes that the pastor and vocational staff are called to help equip the congregation for ministry to the community and beyond. Because of the current context in churches, a chapter on the congregation relating to the pastor and staff and a chapter on conflict resolution are included. Furthermore, the book also treats the important issues of staff and congregational ethics and addresses the serious problem of moral failure. University and seminary professors will find this volume a good choice for a textbook for preparing ministers for church ministry. It will also be a valuable tool for pastors, general staff leaders, and lay leaders in local churches. Pastor, Staff, and Congregational Relationships focuses on servant leadership and addresses the roles pastors, staff, and laypeople play in creating and nurturing strong church relationships. Grounded in biblical principles and full of practical advice, this textbook brings fresh knowledge to a familiar topic. Starting with the premise that all are called to serve but each serves according to his or her own gifts and abilities, Pastor, Staff, and Congregational Relationships emphasizes the importance of the relationships that exist among pastor, staff, and congregational leaders.
Download or read book Spiritual Kaizen written by Grant Hagiya and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Kaizen” is a Japanese word that translates roughly, “to change or correct for the better.” What are the traits, qualities and characteristics of effective clergy? Is it possible to transform an average local church pastor into a highly effective and growth-oriented pastor? Leadership is not defined at birth. All of us can grow and develop into more effective leaders and we can do this at any time during our careers. In Spiritual Kaizen, Grant Hagiya works from the best secular and ecclesial models of leadership, comparing and contrasting the two, in order to draw out the best leadership practices available for current and future leaders of the church.
Download or read book Community as Church Church as Community written by Michael Plekon and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-07-22 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parishes of all denominations are in decline, shrinking, closing, dying. We know that there are increasing numbers, young and older, who are religious “nones” and “dones.” This book explores why the decline is taking place, why the distancing is going on. But it goes on to examine parishes from all over the country and from various church bodies that are resurrecting. The central theme of death and resurrection shapes the analysis of parishes covered. Parishes are resurrecting by reinventing their ministries, by repurposing their building to better serve their neighborhoods, thus replanting and reconnecting with them. All of this is the Spirit’s doing but through the community of sisters and brothers who make up each congregation of faith. Community as the core of church is the other reality shaping the book’s reflection. And community, a parish being with those around, living for more than its own survival are visions for going forward. Other aspects of congregational life are also examined, most importantly the pastors—how they serve when budgets shrink, how they are trained, how pastors act with the community not above it. No recipes are suggested for parish resurrection, but the stories of the parishes that have revived bear within numerous lessons for us in the future.

Download or read book Sacred Decisions written by Marcia Patton and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers congregational leaders and others the opportunity to explore and implement consensus as a decision-making model. Authors Marcia J. Patton and Nora J. Percival clearly state what consensus is and what it is not. They provide a "how-to" resource for persons who want to change how their groups make decisions. Although voting, the "holy way," the "majority rule," and Robert's Rules of Order are deeply entrenched in this country, a consensus is another way to think through, discuss, feel, and arrive at a decision. Patton and Percival provide real-life examples, planning and meeting ideas, and essential steps to develop a consensus decision-making model.
