Taking the framework of the Five Marks of Mission, the author leads the reader to reflect on proclaiming the good news of the Kingdom, Teaching, baptising and nurturing new believers, responding to human need, seeking to transform the unjust structures of society and sustaining and renewing the life of the earth. The book is aimed at all members of the church; there is much to guide leaders and ministers, but it is also accessible and relevant to lay people.

In this second book by Presiding Bishop Jefferts Schori, she explores issues and challenges of deep concern to the Episcopal Church, the wider Body of Christ, and the world at large. Arranged thematically, her essays reflect on the travel, issues, people, and passions that have driven the first three years of her primacy. She places particular emphasis on the Millennium Development Goals, plus the turmoil within the Anglican Communion and the Episcopal Church in the United States.

Insights from a pioneering leader in world religion, on the intersections of the sacred & the secular."As Christians—indeed as people of faith of any tradition—we are called to tend to the needs of the least among us. Our response to them must be the response of faith. God gives us a new heart to do this work, and every time we gather to do it, God offers a pacemaker jolt to tweak our heart's rhythm. The challenge is this: will our hearts respond with a strengthened beat, in tune with God's own heartbeat, sending more life out into the world?"—from the IntroductionExplore our connections—as human beings with each other, as one nation with all other nations, as the human species with the whole of our environment—through the lens of faith. Katharine Jefferts Schori, presiding bishop of The Episcopal Church, examines these connections as she looks at the intersections of faith with the major issues of our day:How does faith speak to poverty, climate change, the economy, health care, and what is the faith response?How can believers from many faith traditions find common ground while honoring the Divine, serving one another, and creating deeper community?How do we best use the resources of faith to connect us to the hearts of ourneighbors and to the heart of God?

In the Christian tradition, believers are called to do more than sit around and pray. Throughout the Gospel-and throughout history-people of faith have been quite literally booted out into the world to bring God's love to everybody, not just a select few. That's the meaning of mission-from the Latin verb mitto, meaning, "to send." It is the work that Jesus and his disciples set out to do-feeding, healing and teaching.In an insightful and powerful voice, Katharine Jefferts Schori, presiding bishop of The Episcopal Church, explores the meaning of mission in the context of contemporary life, reminding us of the Anglican Communion's Five Marks of Mission:. Proclaim the Good News of the Kingdom. Teach, Baptize and Nurture New Believers. Respond to Human Need with Loving Service. Seek to Transform Unjust Structures of Society. Strive to Safeguard the Integrity of Creation, and Sustain and Renew the Life of the Earth
