*Each One a Minister**, a revised and enlarged edition of Carter's previous book by the same title, begins with a six-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 Gods 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 Gods 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.
