book review: Liberating Ministry from the Success Syndrome
A worthy read. So helpful. At points, I was so encouraged. At others, so humbled all I could do was pause from reading and pray. Kent & Barbara Hughes take you back to the Scriptures to define "success" the way God does. Very insightful exogesis, apt illustrations, transparent testimony, practical application--for all these reasons, Liberating Ministry from the Success Syndrome is a must-read-and-re-read book for those in the ministry as well as a helpful tool for those who support those in the ministry. Ladies, the chapter on "How the Pastor's Wife Can Help" is a great reminder no matter what your husband's main role is. I'm recommending this as a "Sell!" to our Campus Store and a "You've Gotta Read This" to the rest of you. Enjoy!! And may the Lord use it in your heart as He did in mine! With love, michelle
