This multi-authored, ecumenical book presents a theology of
ministry
based on the experience of Hispanic communities in the United
States.
Composed in Spanish by many of the leading U.S. Hispanic
theologians,
each essay relates a biblical passage to a specific ministerial
theme, such as the baptismal call to ministry, the power of God's
word in our witness and service, communication as a central
component
of ministry, and the transforming power of the Resurrection in
our
life and communities. Several essays focus on biblical women
who,
just like Hispanic women today, offer valuable lessons for our
ministry. The style is clear and informative but also personal,
informal, and anecdotal.
This inspiring text, highlighting the faith and wisdom of U.S.
Hispanic communities, is a unique resource for personal
meditation,
biblical and theological studies, and pastoral work.
