Maybe something clergy can relate to?
One big thing: New experiment aims to ‘be with’ clergy
A new trend has emerged that has church leaders concerned: young clergy members (under 40) are deciding to forgo traditional ministry…
Why it matters: Clergy report feeling isolated, under immense pressure within their parish and diocese, poorly equipped for the tasks they are expected to take on, and under-resourced for ministry.

Hello, friends! Happy New Year and happy feast of the Epiphany! It’s a New Year and we have some exciting work ahead!

For instance
8577- Micro Church : To create a replicable model of micro church – which TryTank believes is the church of the future – that congregations can use to multiply and grow their church.

(Not sure why the experiment focus is growing their church rather than growing people’s faith, but maybe that’s the seminary influence?)

@revheath I’m just back from the #edinburgh diocese clergy conference. We had a small group session looking at the #TryTank initiative as a way of encouraging creativity and mission entrepreneurship using #DesignThinking … for me, I suspect this and Asset Based Community Development have significant roles to play in the future of churches as we navigate another reformation.
