Theology and training for diverse parish ministries In an entirely new approach, this book - written by nationally recognized experts - shows how every parish lay position has the potential for evangelization. This includes such unexpected volunteer roles as musicians and choir members, ushers and receptionists, youth workers, social activity planners, finance committee members, bereavement counselors, parish council administrators and so on. Addressing both theological issues and practical matters of training, Lay Ministers, Lay Disciples helps Catholics grasp what it means to evangelize - and how evangelization naturally emerges from every role. Unique as an instructional guide for these positions, this book - - explains the six dimensions required to evangelizing ministers - includes questions and answers to help ministers pinpoint their strengths and weaknesses - shows the laity how to work more effectively with the clergy - can be used as a training test or for personal reflection - will challenge, refresh, and encourage all parish ministers
