{"product_id":"9780938162605","title":"Meeting God At The Boundaries","description":"In Meeting God at the Boundaries: Cross-Cultural-Cross-Racial Clergy Appointments (2003), Lucia Ann McSpadden offered a penetrating analysis of the struggles as well as the joys and opportunities experienced by persons engaged in cross-cultural-cross-racial ministry in The United Methodist Church. Soon after the book was published, it became apparent that a volume was needed that would offer the various individuals and groups involved in this ministry hands-on, practical understanding, skills, and competencies for serving in cross-cultural-cross-racial ministry. Meeting God at the Boundaries: A Manual for Church Leaders fills that need. It provides succinct summaries of the basic concepts and competencies in cross-cultural-cross-racial understanding and communication. It then offers practical exercises and tools for equipping key leaders and groups involved in this ministry-clergy, their spouses and families, staff-parish relations committees, district superintendents and bishops-to carry out this ministry effectively and faithfully.","brand":"United Methodist General Board of Higher","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50090708304112,"sku":"9780938162605","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780938162605","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
