PRODUKTBESCHREIBUNG
by Katie E. Lance (Author), Ed Love (Foreword by), Jo Anne Lyon (Foreword by)
"You're telling me things I've never heard before." Ordained Wesleyan pastor Rev. Katie E. Lance began hearing this regularly from male colleagues when she described the challenges encountered by women in pastoral leadership. In Live Anointed, she responds to dysfunction in the body of Christ with a robust, practical vision of sanctified kingdom fullness.
This book invites readers to engage the surprising complexity of one simple question:
What does it look like when men and women say their next "yes" to God?
It isn't always easy-but that's to be expected. After the unexpected hurdles led Lance to interview hundreds of church leaders, she applied her findings in this timely exploration. Drawing on her background as a registered nurse, Lance describes the disruptive hurdles preventing women and men from co-laboring effectively. With practical steps, each chapter features discussion questions by contributors from pastoral and academic backgrounds.
In Live Anointed, Lance invites small groups, church members, leadership cohorts, ordination candidates, ministry students, pastors, and organizational leaders to engage topics like:
- Hurdles to vocational discernment for women answering God's call
- Why the holiness movement settled for less than kingdom fullness
- Hard conversations and healthy alternatives to the "Billy Graham rule"
- How to catalyze leaders effectively and steward vocation well
Are you ready for the freedom to live anointed?
