About this title

Review:

"Dr. Sprinkle has written the 'go-to' book on ordination in the Free Church traditions. Comprehensive and thoughtful, the book provides practical guidance, theological underpinnings, and a few challenges to the traditions. Yes, even Baptists will learn from pondering the reflections of this Disciples' scholar."

About the Author:

Stephen V. Sprinkle is tenured as an Associate Professor of Practical Theology, and has held the office of Director of Field Education and Supervised Ministry since 1994 at Brite Divinity School, located on the campus of Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, Texas. A native of North Carolina, he is an ordained minister of the Alliance of Baptists. He is the first open and out member of the Brite Divinity School Faculty, and the first gay scholar to be tenured in its 94 year history.
