Thrive: Helping your Multi-parish Benefice to Grow
Written for incumbents and other key leaders in
churches, the book explores the rationale, theology, possibilities and
practicalities that underpin the Thrive approach to mission and ministry
in Multi-Parish Benefices.
‘Helpful and practical … shows what is possible and is a source of great encouragement.’
Stephen Cottrell, Archbishop of York
The book is based on the six topics that are core to the Thrive
Collection, and each is explored using insights from our work with
churches over the last nine years. The book provides a great foundation
for the other materials in the Thrive Collection, and is the recommended
starting place for incumbents and leaders.
‘This book will be a gift to many multi-parish benefices … that we
might continue to discover yet more of what it means to be the Church in
and among our local communities.’
Rachel Treweek, Bishop of Gloucester
