Born from a passion for urban ministry, Rochester writes for others who share this passion and have a calling to serve in urban ministry. She offers a solid text in the introduction. Using Jesus as the ultimate example of how to do ministry, Rochester looks to biblical stories and extracts from them ways to minister within the urban context.
With so many urban ministry aids coming from the side of sociology (which needs to be understood), it is refreshing to see one that reads more like a devotional than a textbook.
