With the tagline, “Making a Difference for Christ in the City,” the Dehoney Center for Urban Ministry Training has released Volume 1, Issue 1 of their Journal of Urban Ministry. Readers of this blog may recall my shift in viewing my place in urban ministry from a month ago. This is a welcome resource for me as I continue to meditate and pray about what the next step is after seminary. Here is the table of contents for the journal:

1 From the Editor – Charles E. Lawless, Jr.
2 Capturing Jesus’ heart for the City: A Personal Reflection – Kevin S. Hall
3 G.O.I.N.G. U.R.B.A.N. for the 21st Century Missionary – J.D. Payne
4 The Changing Context of Recife, Brazil – Brent & Jennifer Waldrep
5 “From the Trenches:” Charlotte – Kathy Izard
6 City Outlook
7 City View: Philadelphia
8 Book Reviews:
Ed Silvoso, That None Should Perish: How to Reach Entire Cities for Christ through Prayer Evangelism.

I’m looking forward to digging into this new journal.
