{"product_id":"stewards-of-the-gospel-reforming-theological-education","title":"Stewards of the Gospel: Reforming Theological Education","description":"The word stewardship comes across as stale and mildly distasteful to many in the church today ― as a term limited in its scope to euphemistic conversations about financial giving. Yet, as Ronald Vallet points out, when the apostle Paul refers to \"stewards of the mysteries of God\" (1 Cor. 4:1), he's talking about something much deeper and richer than fund-raising.\n\nIn Stewards of the Gospel Vallet recovers a more adequate understanding of Christian stewardship in light of both the New Testament and the realities facing today's church as it deals with challenges to justice, to the environment, and even to faith itself. He then applies his reinvigorated concept of stewardship in practical ways to congregations, to their pastors and leaders, and to the seminaries and denominational structures that mold and support those leaders.\n\nEnhancing Vallet's broad, gospel-oriented vision of stewardship are thoughtful responses from six seasoned theological educators: Daniel Aleshire, David L. Bartlett, Bruce C. Birch, Terry Parsons, Eugene F. Roop, and L. E. \"Ted\" Siverns.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0802866166\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0802866166.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Vallet, Ronald E.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
