'Growing a Caring Church did not disappoint me. Practical guidelines for pastoral care, its sub-title, is exactly what it is. Wendy Billington brings the home group to the fore, ideally a 'small loving family' which can offer its members a sense of belonging and provide care and spiritual nurture. As well as looking at ways in which we can all care for each other, Wendy puts a spotlight on particular situations, such as caring for the older person, supporting those facing a life-threatening illness and nurturing the single person. A book for every Christian, whatever their place in the body of Christ and whatever their calling.' Reviewed by Jackie Girling, Waverley Operations Manager, CWR.

Growing a caring church

In every church, of every size, meeting people's pastoral needs is a core area of minsitry. If leadership resources are already stretched, however, it can be an area in which it is all too easy to fall short, with potentially disastrous consequences. Earthed in Jesus' command that as his disciples we are to love one another, this book shows how home groups can be places where people's pain and difficulties are noticed, and first steps taken to help.
