When Church Stops Working: The Church in a Time Crisis
a workshop with Andrew Root
Wednesday, October 25, 5:30-8:30 pm
Dinner, Presentation & Conversation
It’s often assumed the church and local congregations are in a crisis of resources. Congregations are losing people, money, and overall cultural influence. There is a misguided assumption that what ails the congregation is this loss of resources.
The crisis the local congregation faces is not a loss of resources, but a loss of time, which just keeps speeding up. And local congregations and denominations simply can’t keep up with technology, social life and pace.
Congregations can attend to sacred time in a late modernity of accelerating time, to move forward faithfully, and find revitalization.
This workshop compliments the Book Study of When Church Stops Working, but reading the book is not required for participation in the workshop.
Join us for an evening of learning, conversation and connection!
Graciously sponsored by the Presbytery of the Twin Cities Area
