For the better part of a generation, the church has faced a rapidly changing world, one that has pushed the church out of the center of the culture to the margins. Then COVID-19 happened, and the disruption to church as we knew it accelerated.
Join us for a workshop on learning to lead all over again in a totally disrupted environment. Tod Bolsinger, author of Canoeing the Mountains and Tempered Resilience, will serve as our guide into the uncharted territory.
Space is limited for this IN-PERSON event. This event will not be livestreamed.
Registration is $40, and the cost covers lunch, snacks, swag and a copy of the book Tempered Resilience: How Leaders Are Formed in the Crucible of Change by Tod Bolsinger. Need-based scholarships are available by contacting Melanie Smollen, msmollen@moumethodist.org.
