When How To Be A Minister was first published in 1980, it received rave reviews. When it was out of print, copies became as prized as gold-dust and were known to disappear from the House of Commons Library. Recommended to incoming ministers in the Thatcher and Major governments by the Cabinet Office, it is also used as a primer by overseas governments. Gerald Kaufman, former Minister and Shadow Cabinet member, brought the book up-to-date in this revised edition. It remains the most authoritative guide to the processes of government ever published as well as being uproariously funny, with an almost never-ending stream of witty one-liners and joyous and/or scurrilous anecdotes.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Chosen to Be a Minister's Wife provides a candid and enlightening look into the life and ministry of Joyce Rogers, wife of the late Dr. Adrian Rogers.

We grew closer to God and to each other over those years, but it wasn't always roses. Through Chosen to Be a Minister's Wife, I hope to help mentor the next generation of ministers' wives by sharing my experiences-both joyful and difficult-and the insights the Lord taught me along the way." In Chosen to Be a Minister's Wife, Joyce Rogers shares personal anecdotes and life stories that reveal biblically-based principles for "how to" encourage your minister husband by being a woman of integrity and wisdom; discover your own uniqueness; develop a hunger for greater knowledge, understanding, and love of God's Word; uncover the secret to having the best marriage in the world; make your home ring with laughter; prepare your children for the calling God has on their lives; nurture close friendships, learn to set priorities, and practice godly mentoring. **** ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Joyce Rogers is an author, speaker, and wife of the late Dr. Adrian Rogers, pastor for 32 years of the well-known Bellevue Baptist Church in Memphis, Tennessee, and the three-term president of the Southern Baptist Convention.

Each One a Minister, a revised and enlarged edition of Carter's previous book by the same title, begins with a 6-session study of Ephesians. Carter engages the reader in discovering the meaning of church, ministry, and gifts from the early church up to the present. As a follow-up to the Bible study, readers and study groups look at ways in which God's gifts are practical as well as spiritual. Four ministry categories, closely connected to the congregational primary task (receive, relate, equip, send), are identified. Scripture readings, activities, and ways to implement specific ministries are suggested. Designed to encourage individuals to discover God's call to ministry in their own lives, Each One a Minister leads toward practical ways of using gifts in ministries in our congregations and in our communities. An ideal resource for clergy, lay leaders, study groups, and others seeking to identify and use their gifts in meaningful ways. Discover Your Spiritual Gifts Leader's Guide is also available.
