{"product_id":"9781786225856","title":"Perfectly Ordinary : In search of healthy church leadership by Marcus Throup","description":"In the wake of scandals involving high-profile Christian leaders in the UK, US and beyond, Perfectly Ordinary issues a timely warning about the dangers of pursuing 'spectacular' ministry. It uncovers how coercive, manipulative subcultures often thrive - and are even admired - because of their outward success, while ignoring the deeper harm they cause.   Marcus Throup calls for a return to an authentic, Christ-centred approach to leadership that values humility, faithfulness, prayer, and genuine pastoral care over sensationalism. By celebrating the beauty of simplicity, it invites readers to rediscover the heart of ministry: holiness, down-to-earth preaching, and a focus on what truly matters.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56305634443637,"sku":"9781786225856","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781786225856.jpg?v=1762798040","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781786225856","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
