Giving Away My Joy - Paperback

by Wilma R. Johnson (Author)

Learn how the pastor of the fastest growing church in Detroit, Michigan lives out her vision and pastoral function, as she and her congregation give and receive joy from encounters with God and each other in the course of their spiritual journey. Dr. Wilma Robena Johnson is pastor of New Prospect Missionary Baptist Church in Detroit, where the membership has tripled from 1,000 to over 3,000 in just five years. Giving Away My Joy describes Dr. Johnson's pastoral leadership model- the Psalmist Model of Spiritual Joy-a model in which the relational and reciprocal qualities of spiritual joy shape expressions of worship, stewardship, counseling and social outreach ministry.
