Occasional Papers
Re-Forming Ministry publishes a series of Occasional Papers that emerge from the work of the program. This series is one of three series of occasional papers published by the Office of Theology and Worship. None of these occasional papers is a Presbyterian policy statement, but rather an encouragement for reflection and conversation.
