Practicing Ministry with the Wisdom of Research with the Rev. Dr. Colleen Windham-Hughes and Catherine Anderson
Research is another form of listening. Researchers bring a posture of curiosity to the struggles we experience and help us find possibilities to move forward. As adrienne maree brown writes, “What you pay attention to grows.” What do you need to pay attention to as you dream about new frameworks for ministry? The Formation Co-Op will help you explore key research themes and discover practical ways to apply them to your unique context. This workshop is a helpful follow-up to the “Listening for Transformation: Crafting Relevant Youth Ministry Frameworks” workshop, but can also be experienced on its own.
