Synopsis

How does a theologically substantive ministry come into being? And how does a theological orientation to the vocation make a difference in pastoral practice? The Power to Comprehend with All the Saints brings pastor-theologians together to answer these and other key questions about the integrity of their vocation. These pastoral voices speak wisdom that will enrich both the academy and the church.
