Product Information

Why Bishops? What's so special about Bishops? What are Bishops called to and how best can they do it? This book is the single resource of answers to all the questions one could conceivably have about what a Bishop is and their function and purpose in the Church.Paul Avis offers a fascinating account of the ministerial identity of the bishop, and in particular the tasks and roles of episcopal ministry. Placing the Bishop within his wider ecclesiological framework, Avis illuminates the role of the individual in episcopal ministry. The book sets the vital work of a Bishop within an ecclesiological framework: the Bishop in the Anglican Communion, within the Church of Christ, within the purposes of God.

Reviews
Becoming a Bishop is a worthy book for the person just elected to episcopal office and for the bishop approaching their silver anniversary. It is so because it invites the reader to enter afresh the living tradition of episcopal ministry. In particular I found Paul Avis's exposition of the public, personal and private life of the bishop to be invitational, so that the reader really wants to grow into the fullness of their vocation. The author reminds us that episcopal ministry involves teaching, sanctifying and governing, yet he never loses sight of the humanity of the bishop. Not only is this a helpful book for bishops, new and experienced; it is also a book I recommend to dioceses which are praying for the right appointment or election that they may be served well and the flock of Christ kept together. The chapter on the collaborative ministry of bishops could well be enjoyed by bishops on retreat or at a study conference., "Paul Avis, one of Anglicanism's leading ecclesiologists, has provided a great gift to anyone called to become a bishop. With a remarkably light touch, he has applied his considerable scholarship to the lived realities of episcopal ministry, combining a deep understanding of the shape of the Church with pearls of practical wisdom drawn from years of observing bishops in a host of different contexts. The result is an attractive and accessible study that will help bishops from churches across the world to go on becoming more fully the bishops God has called them to be." -- Christopher Cocksworth, Bishop of Coventry, Church of England "In 2013, the Anglican Church of Southern Africa, declared that year, 'A year of Theological Education'. This raised untapped financial resources for our Province but also laid bare the dearth in levels of understanding, what the Church is and in particular, the Episcopate. Our Synodical structures, addressed these questions by setting up amongst others, the Canon Law Council to educate bishops and others about church order. In fact, a far cry from the people's wrestling. All they were yearning for was, an account of what is a bishop and the bishop's role in democratic Southern Africa as we together lead the church's mission? Paul's book is the resource we were searching for. Becoming a Bishop is clearly and effectively written, theologically rigorous and yet accessible book. It is imbued with pastoral wisdom and will be helpful to the Bishops of the Anglican Communion around the world, and indeed to bishops and those likely to be bishops of all Christian tradition. At home, it will aptly address the questions our year of theological education raised and equip not only bishops but all the Laos. I highly recommend Becoming a Bishop . I will in the first instance, purchase a copy for each bishop within my province so that they may benefit from this well of wisdom." -- Thabo Makgoba, Archbishop of Cape Town, Anglican Church of Southern Africa " Becoming a Bishop is a worthy book for the person just elected to episcopal office and for the bishop approaching their silver anniversary.

In Becoming A Bishop he invites the reader to reflect on the order and ministry of bishop. He suggests -rightly, I believe -that the church should primarily think about episcopacy in terms of a reasoned consideration of scripture, tradition, ecumenical agreements, all in light of God's mission for the church and the world. This book will make an invaluable resource for bishops and all with a stake in the mission and ministry of the church. Highly recommended." -- Franklin Brookhart, Bishop of Montana, The Episcopal Church, USA, In 2013, the Anglican Church of Southern Africa, declared that year, 'A year of Theological Education'.
