Those in ministry, like Jesus, are called to the task of ‘being with’: with God, with the church, with the created world and those who live in it.Incarnational Ministry explores the concept of ‘being with’ in eight dimensions: presence, attention, mystery, delight, participation, partnership, enjoyment and glory.
