About the Book (Excerpts & Info)
"What Is the Church?" This question guides the Christian in understanding the proper relation that should exist between the individual believer and the institution. The Church is never personal property or a Private Club. The Church is always the association of those who have experienced a personal relationship to Jesus Christ, and are committed to living a life faith despite contrary circumstances.
"Are You Expecting?" is the question that challenges the Christian believer to live a life of constant awareness of what God is doing in the world, and to remain ready to respond when called to unique and special service.
"Finally, Farewell" is the word releasing the baton of service to the trusted hands of others, after a well run leg of the relay race of ministry. These and other sermons challenge both clergy and laity to remain alert to recognize and respond to the many seasons and celebrations of ministry.
Deftly constructed at 196 pages, What is the Church?: Occasional and Seasonal Sermons for the Busy Pastor is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the American - African American category. With U.S. wholesale distribution through Ingram and Baker & Taylor, and pervasive online availability through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and elsewhere, What is the Church? meets consumer demand through both retail and library markets with a suggested retail price of $ 15.95.

About the author:
Hector J. Grant, Sr. is a retired Administrator, Pastor, Preacher and Teacher. He served twenty years as a College Administrator, Minister, Lecturer; and twenty-nine years as pastor of several metropolitan congregations. He is a life long student of the human condition, wielding the writing craft to enrapture the mind much like an artist wields a brush. The pages are a blank canvas on which to draw from a talent heralded by many and matched only by an imagination that rises to the task. What Is The Church? is the third in a series of recent literary pursuits, with work progressing quickly on three further works of similar genre that will quickly follow.
Mr. Grant is a native of Jamaica where he grew up. He migrated to the United States to attend college and remained to earn academic degrees in Sociology, History and Divinity, and to practice his profession as academic administrator, College Minister, Director of Higher Education and Ministry of the United Methodist Church, and pastor of Methodist congregations in Mississippi, Texas and Missouri.
