内容简介

"Young Clergy" ably employs Daniel Levinson's developmental theory - which emphasises the importance of the professional development of young adults in their 20's and 30's to their careers. Using the biographies of five historical clergymen, Phillips Brooks, Jonathon Edwards, John Henry Newman, John Wesley and Orestes Brownson, the book carefully maps the five career patterns of ministry during that time period in each life. The author clearly presents insightful psychological traits held in common, supported by solid biographical information into each minister's actions and reactions to challenges - illustrating how the theory holds relevance for today's young professional clergy.
