Description

More and more people are involved in ministry today. Whether as lay pastoral assistants, chaplains, pastors, religious education teachers, or youth group leaders, more Catholics are involved in ministry work. But what is ministry? How do we do ministry, and why? Lavin believes that lay and consecrated ministers benefit from a theological foundation to what they do. This means asking who we believe our God to be, and who we are in relationship to God and those we wish to serve. Lavin's faith-filled approach draws out the pastoral implications of these themes and reminds us that each of us is called to minister in some way to the larger community.
