Bag om The Christian Ministry
The Christian Ministry by Charles Bridges is a comprehensive exploration of the role of the Christian minister, with a particular focus on the inefficiencies of the ministry in the Establishment. The book is divided into several sections, each of which addresses a different aspect of the ministry.In the first section, Bridges lays out his understanding of the nature and purpose of the Christian ministry. He argues that the ministry is a divine calling, and that its primary purpose is to bring people to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.In the second section, Bridges examines the causes of the inefficiencies of the ministry, focusing on issues such as the lack of spiritual discipline among ministers, the influence of secularism on the church, and the failure of ministers to engage with the wider community.In the third section, Bridges offers practical advice for ministers who are seeking to improve their effectiveness. He discusses the importance of prayer, study, and self-discipline, and provides guidance on how ministers can better connect with their congregations and with the wider world.Throughout the book, Bridges draws on his own experiences as a minister in the Establishment, as well as on the writings of other theologians and thinkers. He writes in a clear and accessible style, and his insights are relevant not only to ministers but to anyone who is interested in the role of the church in society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
