Leading a Suburban Church (L32)

Steven Morris refuses to accept the myth that suburbia is always on the edge of something more exciting and never in the centre of it, instead offering great advice on how leaders can embrace the opportunities a suburban congregation presents. 

Suburbia can often suffer a lack of identity and sense of centre. In such contexts, can church be a place where people find friendship, build community and hear the Christian message? 

This uplifting booklet argues that suburban ministry can be not just fulfilling; it can be life-changing and creative. Leadership on the edge of things can be a huge opportunity for offering the gospel of hope, and for fresh communities to spring up.

The Grove Leadership Series is a partnership between CPAS and Grove Books, offering fresh thinking and ideas to ensure the difference leadership makes is biblical, thoughtful and practical. Grove Booklets are fast moving explorations of Christian life and ministry: 'Not the last word ... but often the first'.
