Markus Watson and Tod Bolsinger reflect on their passion for exploration as an essential element of leadership, discussing the current crisis where the church often resists change and clings to the past rather than venturing into the unknown. Together, they explore the challenges in embracing exploration within the church, examine the role faith plays in embarking on new journeys, and contemplate how our structures often dissuade us from the very essence of adventure that following Jesus entails.

Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson discuss this quote from Dwight Gibson in Episode 25, Organizational Change and the Way of Exploration:

“As people of faith I would like to believe we have a greater capacity for exploration because we do recognize there is something beyond ourselves.” 


THIS EPISODE'S HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:

  • Faith calls believers to embrace exploration and take on the risks that come with following Jesus.
  • Current church culture often resists change and exploration, preferring to maintain the status quo.
  • The Church Leadership Institute aims to equip individuals with the skills needed to navigate uncharted territories.
  • Believers must learn to let go of the past, embodying humility and accepting potential losses, to move forward.
  • God's presence provides reassurance and support for the faithful as they embark upon new, explorative journeys.
