About this book
Renowned liturgical theologian Gordon Lathrop has composed a rich meditative and explicitly ecumenical spirituality for working pastors whatever and wherever they are called: preachers priests elders ministers seminarians. In Part One Lathrop urges pastors to become lifelong students of the Lords Prayer the Apostles Creed and the Commandments continually inhabiting the questions reversals and paradoxes of Christian life. In Part Two he elaborates on the pastors chief activities presiding at the holy table preaching collecting for the poor "as the center and focus for pastoral identity and spirituality." Lathrop invites pastors to recenter their busy lives on God and fuel their ministry through prayer.
