Two Feet Walking: Part 2

Between the pace of change and the complexity of modern life, congregational leadership isn’t just one thing and can’t be done by just one person. In order to stay balanced and effective, leaders must learn to engage the complexity of both making individual disciples and mobilizing a group of people to engage a shared mission. We call this Two Feet Walking. In this episode, we explore the skills that leaders must have to mobilize a group of people to engage a shared mission in a rapidly changing cultural and religious context.  Subscribe | Rate & Review Conversation overview: Vision, map-making and liminal space Accountability and conflict resolution as essential skills Responding to complexity Self-care in the midst of loss Giving the work away Resources How to Lead When You Don’t Know Where You Are Going: Leading In A Liminal Season by Susan Beaumont Family Systems and Congregational Life by Robert Creech Doing the Math of Mission: Fruits, Faithfulness, and Metrics by Gil Rendle Traction: Get A Grip on Your Business by Gino Wickman Generating and Sustaining Creative Tension: An Overview by Jim and Trisha Resources for deconstructing your first formation: Becoming a Healthier Pastor by Ronald Richardson An Introduction to Trauma for Leaders: Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Quit Getting In Your Own Way Faithwalking Resources for Skill Development: Being an Emotional Grown-up: Defined and Connected in an Emotionally Charged System Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes Are High by Kerry Patterson, Joseph Grenny, et. al.
