In an age when authority is questioned and faith communities are scattered, The Independent Bishop’s Handbook offers a vision of episcopal ministry rooted not in control but in compassion.
Drawing on Scripture, the early church, and the lived experience of ministry, this book explores what it means to be a bishop who leads with humility, serves with integrity, and shepherds with courage. It is both a practical guide and a spiritual reflection on the sacred trust of oversight within the Independent Sacramental Movement—and for all churches seeking renewal.
The volume also provides resources for bishops and those discerning the call to episcopacy, including model rites, pastoral forms, and appendices filled with practical tools for ministry, clergy care, and ecclesial governance.
It challenges bishops and clergy to recover the heart of their vocation: to stand among the people as teachers, reconcilers, and servants of unity.
