  • The theological principle undergirding this thesis is that the church is a called-out group of women and men who seek to follow Jesus Christ as disciples and who serve God in response to the needs of others in daily life. As such, the church seeks to live and minister by an Anabaptist ecclesiology which understands faith being lived out in a community of equals. Keeping this vision before God's people is the function of ministry for which all members are responsible. This ministry can be of a salaried model, but the times are also calling the church to examine again the early Pauline vision of plural ministry whereby persons with gifts are called from the local context for specific purposes of service. The key to any model of ministry is an understanding of leadership as non-hierarchical and inclusive. The most important conclusion reached in this research is that plural ministry is possible in the context of congregational life. The study examines a particular congregation where persons have been called to utilize their gifts in a manner which models mutuality and partnership.
