Frogs Without Legs Can't Hear: Nurturing Disciples In Home And Congregation

It takes a whole church frog - head (leadership), torso (body), and legs (home) - to raise persons of faith in a world set against the ways of God. Frogs Without Legs Can't Hear: Nurturing Disciples in Home and Congregation challenges church professionals and volunteers to shift the center of faith formation from the congregation to a shared center involving the home and ministry in daily life. Drawing on five principles that define the congregation-home partnership, and four key faith practices that promote faith development, David W. Anderson and Paul Hill have written a timely and provocative book keenly suited to ministry in the 21st century.
