Ministry as participation in the continuous ministry of the living Christ: In conversation with Andrew Purves – to be in awe of your calling

Résumé

This article reflected on the ministry of the pastor as participation in the continuous ministry of the resurrected Christ, that aids the minister to find comfort in the realisation that ministry is not primarily his or her action, but merely participation, through the mystical union with the living Christ, grounded in his or her baptism, in which he or she applies all his or her theological education, gifts and skills in service of this participatory ministry. Intradisciplinary and/or interdisciplinary implications: The article outlined the priestly ministry of Christ, the framework and hermeneutic perspective of awe and the compassion of Christ in which the minister participates in union with the living Christ. The outcome can be used for further research for pastoral ministry or the application in current pastoral ministry.
