Three key roles within Mediterranean culture---steward, prophet, and keeper of the word---shaped various ministries within the early church. How did the first leaders balance the sometimes conflicting functions of hierarchical social structures, religious experience, and tradition? Williams explores this vital question, helping contemporary leaders apply history's lessons to the shifting contexts of modern ministry. 225 pages, softcover from Hendrickson.
