The Scottish Parish System - seen as Incarnational

The Church of Scotland is founded on her having a
territorial ministry in Scotland. This means that
the Church of Scotland covers the whole of Scotland,
in terms of mission and service. The purpose of this
book is to seek to theologically justify the
Scottish Parish System, and to celebrate the fact
that the Church of Scotland is embedded in Scottish
society, and so relates alike to members and non-
members of the Church. The study of this book is
centred on a real congregation, and on its Kirk
Session in particular. The discussion recorded from
a Kirk Session meeting is deeply theological, and is
imbued with Christian love. The opinions and beliefs
expressed by everyone involved in this study are
worth listening to, and are authentic voices from
faithful members of the Church of Scotland which
deserve to be heard. This book is for everyone who
would learn more of the incarnational ministry of
the Church of Scotland.
