Pastoral leaders are often expected to be experts who manage and control realities beyond their expertise, experience, and ability. That expectation, a product of modern approaches to leadership, views the pastor as responsible for maintaining the status quo. Transforming Pastoral Leadership responds to this context by challenging readers to rediscover key biblical themes around the shepherding metaphor as well as key theological themes steeped in our historical faith narratives. Readers are challenged to consider the origins of our dominant leadership practices and to reconsider how Christ's preeminence as the leader of his church requires us to reconstruct leadership practices that are faithful to his preeminence. To assist congregations, Transforming Pastoral Leadership suggests two processes that might help congregations discern God's missional promptings as they move forward into God's future and experience conflict as opportunities for transformation.Item Mission and suffering: a camouflaged truth(Direction, 1993) Zorrilla, HugoItem Marriage: a path that is made by walking(Direction, 1990) Zorrilla, HugoItem Moral growth and maturity and the church(Direction, 1989) Wiebe, EliasItem A church growth consultation: expectations and post-session perceptions(Direction, 1991) Schmidt, Henry J.Item Diverse models/strategies of church planting/growth among Mennonite Brethren(Direction, 1991) Schmidt, Henry J.Item Hans Kasdorf: missiologist par excellence(Direction, 1994) Schmidt, Henry J.Item Hans Kasdorf's contribution to mission theology(Direction, 1999) Schmidt, Henry J.Item J.B.'s prophetic call to biblical discipleship(Direction, 1997) Schmidt, Henry J.Item J.B. as educator(Direction, 1997) Schmidt, Henry J.
