Redemptive Service: Loving Our Neighbours Well

by Lisa P. Stephenson and Ruthie Wienk

Stephenson and Wienk articulate the biblical, theological, and sociological foundations of service---and why it's a vital part of Christian identity. Using the parable of the good Samaritan, they frame ministry as a twofold process that must emerge from genuine love of our neighbors and be accompanied by intentional and informed action.
