Helping you fulfil your calling in small church and bi-vocational contexts through conversations with leaders in these settings and the latest thoughts on how to stay faithful in the small things.
The Quiet Revival through the lens of the Small Church - A reflection on 2025
Join me for the last episode of the year where I'll be reflecting on the Quiet Revival as seen through the lens of the small church. With some brief data points gathered from 24 churches, plus reflection from own journey in ministry this year, we will look at what we can celebrate and rejoice in, while keeping an eye on the reality of life in leading in small church and bi-vocational settings.
At the end of the episode, I briefly suggest some questions that invite us to consider our church health and not just our numbers. For a deeper look into this, Karl Vaters has some thoughts here: https://karlvaters.com/assess-health-of-a-church/
