CONVERSATIONS WITH JOHN FRANKE

It was to great to gather together last Thursday to dialogue with John Franke and one another around emerging church issues.

Over the next week or so we want to share some personal reflections on the experience, along with providing some space for the conversation to continue to unfold. If you would be willing to share something of your experience, let me know via email (terry@cccsh.org).

For me, one of the things that resonated most was John's description of leadership in environmental terms. What does a movement away from leader as "theologian in residence" or "CEO" mean in a community of faith (or a seminary setting might I dare ask)? What kinds of mindsets and heartsets need to be embraced, nurtured, and developed to see this kind of leadership unleashed in the Body of Christ? What do you think?

Thanks to Brian Wallace for all his work on bringing John to Pittsburgh. If you missed any of the events you can listen to podcasts of the conversations here...
