DO you understand the relevance of the sacred in ministry? Are you seeking to bring a greater sense of the sacred to ministry work, but unsure of how? If you answered "yes" to either of those questions, this book is for you! An overwhelming number of ministers are tiring of the modern "get it while it's good and fun" approach to ministry. Seeking more depth, they seek to connect with the sacred in a profound way - but how? What is the right way to go about it? How can we connect with God in a way that is both Biblical, but still speaks to us today?

In Rites, Rituals and Ordinances: Celebrating The Sacred In Ministry, Dr. Lee Ann B. Marino, Ph.D., D.D. outlines guidelines, standards, and the apologetics for nine rites, rituals, and ordinances which restore the sacred within ministry. Originally written for Apostolic University as part of ordination instruction, Dr. Marino presents practical wisdom and approach into sacred rites, rituals, and ordinances, including ordination, appointments, weddings, funerals, presentations/dedications, consecrations, anointing, water baptism, and holy communion. Learn the reasons why these rites, rituals and ordinances are important and essential for Kingdom believers today, as we strive to find the sacredness of God in a church that is often chaotic and disordered.
