Publisher's Summary

Women and men are designed to work together in fulfilling God's mission on earth. Yet God's original intent for equal partnership has been so distorted that churches and organizations continually struggle to foster healthy mixed-gender ministry collaboration. Is it even possible to return to the Genesis ideal of collaborators in today's contexts?

Longtime ministry leader Rob Dixon knows it's possible - though it takes intentionality, courage, and wisdom. Based on qualitative field research among ministry practitioners, Together in Ministry offers a prophetic road map for individuals and communities as they seek to develop flourishing ministry partnerships for women and men.

Organized around the key domains of inner life, community culture, and intentional practices, this model identifies 10 key attributes of partnerships that are both personally satisfying and missionally effective. For each attribute, Dixon presents research findings and biblical examples, along with benefits, barriers, and practical next steps. With plenty of real-life stories from ministry leaders and reflection questions in each chapter, Together in Ministry casts a compelling - and encouraging - vision for flourishing partnerships and equips teams and individuals with next steps for making that vision a reality.
