Planning can be challenging in the contemporary congregation, where people share a common faith and values but may have very different preferences and needs. Much of the literature on congregational planning presents it as a technical process: the leader serves as the chief problem solver, and the goal is finding the solution to the problem.Popular Alban consultants and authors Gil Rendle and Alice Mann cast planning as a holy conversation, a congregational discernment process about three critical questions: Who are we? What has God called us to do or be? Who is our neighbor?Rendle and Mann equip congregational leaders with a broad and creative range of ideas, pathways, processes, and tools for planning. By choosing the resources that best suit their needs and context, congregations will shape their own strengthening, transforming, holy conversation. They will find a path that is faithful to their identity and their relationship with God.Resource materials are available to purchasers of the book.
