What does faithful innovation look like in your context?
As we move through and out of the Covid-19 pandemic, many Christian leaders are wondering what will change and what will be the same in the coming months and years. What kinds of adaptations will we have to make, and what kind of leadership will this require of us and of the teams we lead?
St. Andrew’s Hall is partnering with Cyclical INC to host a webinar called Faithful Innovation, which is designed to begin a conversation about what it means to move through and out of the pandemic. The conversation will take place in 3 video sessions over 3 weeks:
Session 1 – Wednesday, May 19, 11am to 12pm PDT
Session 2 – Wednesday, May 26, 11am to 12pm PDT
Session 3 – Wednesday, June 2, 11am to 12pm PDT
These video sessions will center around the topics articulated in the book of the same title, Faithful Innovation: Beginning a Conversation for a Post-Covid Church (Cyclical Publishing, 2020). Participants are encouraged to buy a copy of the book for themselves and for any teams they lead to get the most out of the three sessions.
The changes ahead don’t have to take us by surprise. Register for Faithful Innovation today so you can join a conversation that will prepare you and your teams to lead well through the season ahead.
