This important and timely study looks at emerging styles of leadership in today’s mission-shaped church. The Archbishop of Canterbury’s Fresh Expressions initiative has inspired countless new developments by local churches to engage with the communities they serve through cafes, children’s clubs and many other non-traditional ventures. So far much is experimental and reliant on the personalities involved.* What is needed is * some substantial research of what is happening * some theological reflection * a framework for practice * a directory of resources and ideas
This is precisely what this book provides. New patterns of ministry and mission require new resources to inspire, inform and sustain those engaged in them and this volume will be widely welcomed as one of the first key publications in this area.
Authors include: MARTYN PERCY, Principal of Ripon College Cuddesdon, Oxford.RICHARD TURNBULL is Principal of Wycliffe Hall, Oxford. STEVE CROFT, Archbishops’ Missioner and Team Leader of Fresh Expressions. GRAHAM CRAY, Bishop of Maidstone and a key missional leader in the Church of England. and more. ***-Publisher.***
The Fresh Expressions initiative, a joint Anglican and Methodist venture launched in 2004, has attracted increasing interest from academics, clergy and laity, yet there is very little that offers critical reflection on it. This is the natural successor to John Hull's useful short critique in Mission- Shaped Church: a theological response, and key authors assess the impact of mission-shaped thinking and practice from a variety of angles.
