Description: Even in the best circumstances, the transition from seminary study into vocational ministry is difficult. There are so many variables and unknown aspects: when should you start preparing for transition? What is the best way to go about it? Why do some students seem to weather the process more easily than others? Is there any help for me?

In From M.Div. to Rev., Ed Eubanks offers the kind of help that students need to make an effective transition. Based on extensive research and his own experiences, this book offers a blueprint to each step of the transition process: from getting ready to getting started; from developing opportunities to developing a fledgling ministry. It's the kind of nuts-and-bolts wisdom that every seminary student needs.
