Upcoming Series and New Ideas

It’s been a joy to unpack some of the nuts and bolts of missional communities, and I’ve loved the feedback I’ve received from many of you.

I’ve compiled the different series together on my resources page here: https://toddengstrom.com/resources

In the coming months, I’ll be working through:

  • Coaching Missional Communities
  • Assessing Missional Communities
  • Missional Community Core Values
  • Leadership Development Systems for Missional Communities
  • Assimilation and Missional Communities

I’m sure there will be more to come as well!  

Much of the purpose of blogging is for me to write down many of the ideas that drive us at The Austin Stone, but it’s also to serve and equip Kingdom leaders around the globe.

I’d love to hear from those of you reading this – what topics would you like for me to write on?  How can I continue to be helpful to you as your pursue missional communities in your context?

Let me know in the comments!
