More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Wisdom plays a key role in the Hebrew Bible, not least in the books traditionally regarded as wisdom literature, among them Job, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes and some of the psalms. But in the church's use of the Hebrew Bible, wisdom is something of a poor relation compared to the law, the prophets and the psalms, especially given the importance it has for the New Testament's understanding of Christ as the word and wisdom of God. The call to ministry, the author believes, is the call to be, or become, wise ourselves, and to help others on their own journey of discovery as to what this means.

Format:Paperback
This is the best book for 50 years on what it is to be a priest or leader in the church. With Michael Sadgrove's deep knowledge of the Biblical meaning of Wisdom, coupled with his compassionate understanding of what it is to be a priest or minister in the present century, he gives us a book to guide all who seek to be ordained, and to help those who have been leaders for many years to re-evaluate their ministry.
