• Popular author with broad appeal • New vision for shaping future church leaders The Church’s mission is not dependent upon economic or worldly boundaries. The gospel will expand and grow where people respond to God’s grace in their lives. The Episcopal Church, along with all denominational churches, is being forced to break out of old training models and traditions of ordination in this new age of mission. The Church must rethink formation of leaders (lay and clergy) to keep up with what God is already doing in the world. Participating in God’s mission will press us to reconsider assumptions about the vocations themselves, and their shape for the future.
