No pastor can lead a congregation to renewal alone. it requires a
complete change of heart for the whole congregation. Congregational
renewal occurs when people engage communally in a transition in
their very understanding of the nature and purpose of their church.
This goes far beyond a simple retooling of the mission statement or
addition of a few programs. Authors Mary Sellon and Daniel Smith
lead congregations through this process of renewal, breaking down
into understandable components what is happening in the people
themselves that makes renewal efforts successful. Pathway to
Renewal offers pastors and congregational leaders a framework for
understanding and addressing the deep cultural shift facing the
people of a congregation during congregational renewal. This book
will help leaders make sense of where their congregation could get
stuck and guide them in thinking through what needs to be addressed
next as a congregation seeks renewal. The realigning of a
congregation's heart and sense of purpose can be a long process,
but one that ultimately all congregations must experience in order
to fully live out the world-transforming mission that God has given
them to do.
