Change isn't always easy or intuitive. How Your Congregation Learns introduces churches and leaders-both lay and ordained-to the process of the learning journey. By understanding learning dynamics and working to become a learning community, the congregation will be able to move more purposefully to achieve its goals. Congregations face many kinds of challenges. Some are mundane-the roof leaks; the parking lot needs repaving; the microphones don't work well. Some tests are transcendent-how should lives be honored?; what is God calling the congregation to do and be?; how can generosity be taught? Throughout life people face challenges for which they are not prepared-the death of a parent, a new job offer, making a decision about where to live. So it goes that congregational leaders face challenges that are just beyond the grasp of their abilities. This book addresses the just-beyond-the-grasp challenges. Effectively addressing new challenges is connected to a congregation's ability to learn. This book outlines the learning process to enable leaders to be more effective and creative change-agents for congregations. The book shares real examples of congregations learning and changing, and offers a wealth of information to facilitate the learning and change process.
