Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson engage in a meaningful conversation about the delicate balance of honoring the "inherited church" while experimenting on the edges to drive adaptive change. Drawing from a quote by Shannon Kiser, who is deeply involved in adaptive leadership and fresh expressions of church, Tod explains how churches can innovate without discarding valuable traditions.

Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson discuss this quote from Shannon Kiser in Ep 177, Exploring New Forms of Church:

“We don’t have to give up what we love and cherish about the inherited church to also experiment on the edges.”

THIS EPISODE'S HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:

• Church leaders honor the inherited church by experimenting on the edges without abandoning tradition.
• Adaptive leadership brings life to faith communities by evolving core practices to fit changing environments.
• Teams conduct modest experiments on the fringes to introduce effective innovations into the church.
• Effective change requires balancing respect for the past with openness to new approaches.
• Congregations thrive by integrating new discoveries that cater to both historical and present needs.
