Description

Gospel workers are called to be both/and people: both patient and urgent, both confident and humble, both dependent on God and committed to hard work, both theologically driven and practically wise, and more. Often, these requirements feel as though they’re in tension. But this book shows that rather than leaning one way or the other, or seeking to strike a balance, authentic gospel ministry is found in pursuing both/and. To settle for less puts ourselves and our churches in danger.

Gary Millar has has been involved in training hundreds of gospel workers at Queensland Theological College. Pointing to Christ as our supreme example, he helps readers to reflect on and refine their own ministry practice in a range of different areas—while also enjoying God's grace where they fall short.

As you look at all things through the lens of the gospel, you'll increasingly become the fully-formed follower of Jesus and servant of his church that you have been called to be.  

Ideal for church staff and lay leaders, students preparing for ministry, and ministry apprentices and interns, as well as for any Christian who is heavily involved in their local church.

It takes a particular talent to accomplish what Gary Millar has done in this characteristically clear and profoundly helpful book. With a lightness of touch he helps us understand the keys to living a life truly grounded in the gospel and pursuing a ministry genuinely shaped by that gospel.

Graham Beynon

Head of Local Ministries, FIEC, UK

In a day of soundbites and hype, this book comes as a refreshing word of sanity. Gary Millar shows the multicoloured nature of Christian life and ministry, and refuses to allow it to become monochrome. He helps us grasp the different angles of Jesus’ teaching and resist the temptation to boil them down to just one thing. We all need ‘both/and’ ministry.

Jen Charteris

Executive Director of Crosslands

In this warm and wise book, Gary Millar makes sense of the many apparent tensions of ministry and leadership, reminding us that as disciples of Christ, we are called to ‘a life that is marked by contrasts and paradoxes that reflect the glorious richness of our God and Saviour’. Gary helps us to recognise, navigate and value the many ‘both/and’ realities we encounter when we seek to live and lead like Jesus. A great personal or team read for facilitating reflection on ministry and growth in ministry.
