Turning Points in Ministry: Thinking Aloud

By Blanche Clipper Hudson

This book is a compilation of fifty sermons that the author selected that focus on the different seasons of ministry, spanning several years, from 1995-1999. From her volume of sermons, she selected fifty sermons that represent the minister's spiritual growth and development in ministering to diverse congregations.

The sermon titles demonstrate her acknowledgment of spiritual growth and development - Stretching Out of Shape, Bloom Where You're Planted, A Radical Newness, Divine Deliverance, From Transformation to Jubilation and Trust and Obey. The theme or subject of barrenness emerges from this compilation.

While listening for God through the barren times, these sermons demonstrate the minister's challenges and victories in those silent seasons. She learns that through the barren seasons that God prepares us for greater opportunities for service in ministry at the next turning points.

As Christian leaders and ministers study and explore specific sermons, this book provides useful information as a tool for promoting group discussion on difficult topics, such as barrenness in ministry or waiting and listening for God. This theme of barrenness also emerges in scripture when Sarah (Abraham's family) discovers that she cannot conceive a baby. However, it is important to note that Abraham also plays a vital role in this scripture, which is a great discussion topic for both men and women
