Mark chats with Simon Ponsonby, author of ‘More’ & ‘God Inside Out’ and Pastor of Theology at St Aldates in Oxford, about hoping for revival and the call for the upcoming generation of leaders to be founded in word and empowered by Spirit.

The third in the mini-series on formation, Mark explores seven ways in which we can move from ‘helicopter pastoring’ to supporting a Priesthood of all believers.

Continuing the mini-series on formation, Mark discusses how up until this point discipleship has attempted to address the issues caused by a cultural lack of resilience yet our culture is rapidly changing.

This episode is the first of a few conversations about how formation is being impacted during this time. Focussing on how the performative nature of contemporary individualism can undermine formation, our move to online platforms poses concerns about who and what we are being formed by as leaders and how to reframe this time as a renewal opportunity.

Mark speaks with Alain Emerson and Andrew Masters from Northern Ireland to seek their unique perspective on leading through crisis.

Mark chats with Terry Walling about how leaders have an opportunity in the midst of transition to go deeper in dependence on God in order for spiritual authority to expand.
