Summary: | How is TEE faring in the land of its birth? This 15-year position report reveals the kind of statistical “success” one would expect. But despite this success — even because of it —this innovative approach has encountered significant opposition. This should come as no surprise to us, Professor Kinsler maintains.

By separating the ongoing function from the traditional form, we are forced to take a new look at the nature of “the ministry” and how to train the people of God for it. |
