Episode Synopsis

Embark with us on this enlightening journey as we explore the 20-year trends of the Lutheran Church of Missouri Synod. We'll be pulling insights, dissecting the characteristics of adaptive leaders, and understanding the fine balance between managing stress, taking calculated risks, and maintaining a sense of security. Leadership is more about caretaking than you think, and we're here to tell you why.Picture the future of churches and pastoral formation as we discuss the steady count of congregations that worship between 50 to 99 members, and the significant drop in the number of large churches. It's a wake-up call for the urgent need for innovative and flexible leadership. We're also shining a spotlight on the challenges of catering to micro churches and the lack of resources for larger churches. Listen in as we contemplate the importance of partnerships, especially with the Unite Leadership Collective who are making strides in leadership development and the need for adaptive change in today's local church scenario. Get ready to rethink, reimagine, and revamp the way we perceive the Church and its leadership.Support the showJoin the Lead Time Newsletter!
