Tim Chester's helpful book is a key title in a small but growing body of literature about ministry in tough areas. It gives the rationale for the church engaging on the estates of the UK (and elsewhere) rooting it in the Gospel of Jesus. Using real-life examples and experience of people on the ground to complement biblical material, Chester's work is instructive and encouraging. If you are involved or interested in ministry on estates, this book is for you. As a vicar in an area with many of the issues described in this book, I have found it to be a great help.
