MINISTRY OF THE LAITY
Anderson, James D. & Ezra E. Jones
Harper & Row, 1986
224 pages

The authors assert that real lay ministry springs from strong, moral character developed not just through church activities but also through everyday life. “This book aims to help laypeople see themselves as subjects who can act in ministry, not as objects who are ministered to. It explores practical exercise of faith in the settings of family, neighborhood, church, work, and society” (dustcover flap). An insightful perspective needed by clergy.

""You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.""

Matthew 5:14-16 (NIV)
