'Truly Called? Vocation in the Anglican Church' is a book about vocation that will provide direction and support for anyone who may be sensing that Jesus is calling them to the ordained ministry in the Anglican Church of Australia.

Australian Anglicans Worship performing APBA explores the heritage, background, contents and creative use ofA Prayer Book for Australia (APBA).Reflection on the theological and liturgical principles that surround each service in APBA is blended with ideas for creative worship - and the author is not afraid to take poor theology and unhelpful practice to task.In writing this book, the Revd Dr Charles Sherlock AM has drawn on his close involvement with the preparation of APBA, along with his five decades of teaching and enthusiasm for lively liturgy.Sensitive to the Anglican heritage and its current diversity, Australian Anglicans Worship performing APBA is a unique resource for Australian Anglicans. Scholarly, yet eminently readable, it supports all who prepare, lead and participate in creative Christian worship that is faithful to what really matters.

This is now the third edition of the Pastoral Handbook for Anglicans, following on from the two earlier editions prepared and published in 1988 and in 2001 respectively. The Pastoral Handbook seeks to provide useful and practical guidelines to Anglican ministers that are grounded in, and arise directly out of, the sustained practice of ministry over an extended period of time. It is shaped and informed throughout by the Scriptures, Anglican pastoral theology, and the liturgical resources provided by A Prayer Book for Australia 1995, with reference also to applicable canon law.As is the case in the previous two editions, the provision of Anglican ministry in the context of Christian initiation (baptism, confirmation, reception), marriages and funerals are each addressed in detail, with attention to recent developments in these significant areas of ministry. A new section addresses pastoral ministry in other circumstances, such as ministry with the sick and dying, and the reconciliation of a penitent. A further entirely new chapter has been provided by internationally renowned theologian Dr Stephen Burns on ';Pastoral Ministry Today,' which sets the practice of Anglican pastoral ministry in the social and missional context of early 21st century Australia.Although produced in the Diocese of Melbourne, the Pastoral Handbook for Anglicans has been written with a wider audience in mind and is offered as a resource for the national church.

Performance is a time-honoured way of thinking about what a Christian congregation does when it gathers. Christian services typically set out to have us take part in the great Divine drama that revolves around Jesus Christ. But what really matters about how we perform the gospel in church, and beyond? This is what this book sets out to explore.In an era when the choices of worship style are often presented as polar opposites to prove a point, Charles Sherlock offers a refreshing alternative to blind conservatism or deconstructionism... I'm looking forward to parishes, theological colleges and worship committees to take up the challenge that is laid out... It deserves wide attention.-- From the foreword by Archbishop Philip Freier
