In this thought-provoking episode of Pivot, hosts Rev. Dr. Terri Elton, Rev. Dr. Dwight Zscheile, and Dr. Alicia Granholm dive into the shifting landscape of church leadership. They explore the growing trend towards lay-led, clergy-supported ministry models and what this means for both clergy and congregations. Drawing on real-life examples and listener questions, the conversation covers topics such as empowering lay leaders, redefining clergy roles, fostering ecumenical cooperation, and navigating resistance to change.
Listeners will gain valuable insights into how churches can adapt to post-Christendom realities, cultivate collaborative leadership, and reimagine structures for more effective ministry. Whether you're a clergy member, lay leader, or simply interested in the future of the church, this episode offers practical wisdom and inspiration for navigating these changing times with hope and creativity. Join us as we explore what it means to be the church in the 21st century and how we can all play a part in God's ongoing work in the world.
