Description

by Roger A. Richardson (Author), Bishop Frederick a. Sr. Wright (Author)

In this conversational and inspiring book, Dr. Richardson has captured the essence of faith, family and fellowship, as well as his lessons-learned, and the teachable experiences associated with leading a "Family Church."

After accepting the calling as a church minister at the age of twelve, and climbing the ladder of success to become a well-respected academic scholar and spiritual leader, a recent conversation and "aha moment" planted the seed for an entertaining, inspiring, and transformational guide for pastors, church leaders, and lay persons.It was a casual remark from a mentor and a pastor who had shepherded a fledgling church into a beacon of his community. As the two discussed their ministries, sharing the triumphs and tribulations of life in the pulpit, his mentor's words landed with a surprising weight: "Oh. You are the pastor of a family church. A church with unique strengths and the transformative power of intimacy. A church where belonging is not just a word but an actual experience."In this conversational and inspiring book, Dr. Richardson has captured the unabridged essence of his lessons-learned, and the teachable experiences associated with leading a "Family Church." Within the 120-pages, the reader obtains an unforgettable view into the historical and instinctive nature of "The Family Church" -- one filled to the rim with the kind of faith, family and fellowship, which ignores size and numbers, and embraces actionable love, kindred kindness and awe-inspiring spiritual strength.The book's Foreword is passionately and profoundly provided by Bishop Frederick A. Wright, Sr., the 142nd Bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church.
