RETHINK Church

Join UK and US ecumenical faith leaders, pioneers, ministers, and candidates for a day of conversation and dreaming about church pioneering and church revitalisation in the 21st century.

*Interested in new expressions of faith community in a rapidly shifting cultural landscape?

*Tired of being told that church revitalisation is simply a matter of doing better or more of the conventional things that used to come easily?

*Passionate about innovation and inclusion?

*Need some encouragement or practical support around how to move from ideas to action?

Nothing in the world of organised religion works the way it used to. We’re interested in cultivating and coaching leaders who can serve flexibly and passionately amidst critical cultural shifts.

The event is free. Lunch is provided so booking is essential. For more information or to book, contact Jonathan Mead: meadj@methodistchurch.org.uk

A presentation by Paul Nixon, Author of “Weird Church: Welcome to the 21st Century” and Trey Hall of Epicenter Group (American Methodist church planters and coaches)
