Renewing the Church: Discipleship & Formation in a liminal time
ACA Webinar April 30, 2022
As we slowly begin to move out of the restrictions around COVID many of us are wondering what this “new” world will be like. This is particularly true for the Church where the shift to online worship services has allowed some to stay connected but has surely exacerbated the decline in attendance as many others seem to have drifted away. Meanwhile, many Church leaders are tired and overwhelmed while wondering how or if local Church communities might regroup or move forward. It is easy to forget that God is still at work. Could it be that in the midst of these difficult times we will see God doing something new and if so how can we best put our time, focus, and energy into those efforts that will align with what God is doing? In conversation with people like Dallas Willard and James K.A. Smith we will be exploring the place of discipleship and formation in the Church.
