This D. Min. Ministry Project report argues for the creation of a congregational rule of life as a means of clarifying congregational identity and promoting Christian practices. The author describes a method of leadership development and group discernment that draws on community organizing and Benedictine spirituality. The result is embedded in a handbook entitled: ' A Life-Giving Way: Stories, Practices, Challenges and Some Hopeful Affirmations from the People of St. Timothy's.' The author analyzes the theory of Alasdair MacIntyre and research of Diane Butler Bass on practices and their relation to programs, institutions and intentional community growth among mainline congregations.
