Spiritual Leadership in the Missional Church (L38)

L38 in the Grove Leadership Series. How can leaders hold their Christian community in tension with the needs of newcomers and the unchurched and remain open to missional opportunities that lie beyond the church walls?

This guide takes a systems approach to understanding the complexities of church dynamics, and casts the spiritual leader as cultivator of the environment. Central to this role is keeping a rule of life, which allows leaders to maintain a God-centred self-definition as they lead the Christian ciommunity in discerning and owning their primary tasks. Nigel Rooms and Patrick Keifert explore different theorys that will help you to be even more eqqiped when leading in complexity, chaos and conflict.

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'.
