Seeing Afresh: Learning From Fresh Expressions Of Church

?As the Church of Scotland approaches its sixth year as a partner in Fresh Expressions, Seeing Afresh tells the story of eight very different church communities that have emerged and asks what can be learned from them and how their examples can inspire other churches to engage more imaginatively in mission. The stories featured include fresh expressions of church working with: òmarginalised youth in the heart of a city òmillennials and homeless in a busy commercial centre òa scattered rural community òall-ages on an island community òthose living in sheltered accommodation òactive, retired and socially minded, but sceptical about faith òonline communities The opportunities and the challenges of creating and sustaining different kinds of church are treated with realism and many essential insights on motivation, vision, understanding the context, first steps, pioneer leadership, nurturing disciples and more are discovered and shared.
