Description

"Joseph J. Allen's The Ministry of the Church is a timely book. The author sets up a dialogue between the Orthodox tradition and present-day practice of pastoral care. ... The strength of the Orthodox position is that it resolutely sees shepherding as an 'in-Church' activity and so can integrate the cure of souls, liturgical practice and sacramental life." --from The Way: Contemporary Christian Spirituality, July 1988 - from Amzon
