We lead the Autumn issue of 2016 with a report by Ian Somasundram on the recent Junior Anglican Evangelical Conference (JAEC) 'Reach, Build, Send', which looked at a biblical pattern for parish ministry.

Kirsty Birkett looks at building resilience in ministry and why stress might be good for us. Paul Williams helps us to see the priority of sending out workers into the harvest field, whilst Glen Scrivener asks how we should reach out to a lost world.

Martin Davie examines a recent proposal for affirming same-sex relationships in the Church of England in the light of an ancient principle of church life, and Rod Thomas, Bishop of Maidstone, talks us through the why and how of passing a resolution under the House of Bishops' Declaration on the Ministry of Bishops and Priests.

There are also details about two new Church Society books: 'Feed My Sheep', and 'The Deliberate Pastor'. All this and more in the latest edition of Crossway. If you’re not a subscriber, or a member, already, why ever not?
