When leaders burn out, churches lose their essential witness

Church leaders are struggling as wave after wave of challenges hit us in 2020. Many leaders are exhausted and at risk of burnout. If we don’t create a new and better normal, we will experience the ongoing and accelerated decline of the essential witness of the Church.

Creating a New and Better Normal for the Church

Cyclical is paving the way for churches to innovate in new ways, and to see what is possible for the future. Here’s how.

IMPLEMENT INNOVATIVE

Frameworks

Instead of rigid prescriptions, Cyclical creates flexible, missional, relational, Spirit guided and post-industrial frameworks that come from on-the-ground wisdom and praxis-oriented experiences.

CONNECT IN MULTITIERED

Relationships

We lean on Christ and we lean on one another. From authors, to denominational leaders, church starters, pastors, therapists, spiritual directors, business leaders and coaches, we work together, as the body of Christ, to discern the Holy Spirit in our various contexts.

Adaptations

Cyclical understands we can no longer lean on the formulas of our Christendom past. Instead we are committed to guide you and learn with you to discover Spirit-led solutions to adaptive issues that you are encountering.

"Innovation often disappoints in its early years, only to exceed expectations once it gets going"

Matt Ridley, How Innovation Works

How We Participate with God in Innovation

If you are church leader of any kind, you have felt the weight and frustration of trying to do something new. It can often feel like nobody is there to understand or to help. Cyclical INC is a community of practitioners who understand how isolating innovative leadership can be.

That’s why our response to inspiring faithful innovation through the Church is not to try to do more on our own, but to join people like you with our multi-tiered support scaffolding. Through mutual relationships, we have witnessed God transforming churches of various sizes, traditions and contexts around the world.

"Sometimes judicatories can spend inordinate amounts of time talking about what’s broken and disagreeing on how to fix it. Cyclical has helped us focus instead on our gifts and what’s possible. Church starting leaders and the communities they’re creating help us celebrate and invest in what the church will be."  

The Hon. Rev. Dr. Fr. Paul Rock

"Church Shapes is our attempt at putting a bit of language to the various shapes that we are seeing Church taking. The goal is not to box you into one shape or another, but to broaden our ecclesiological imagination by providing a more detailed language."
Nick Warnes
Executive Director, Cyclical INC
