Dragons’ Den: Ecclesial
This is some of what I wrote today, part of an introductory chapter in Biography of an innovation [working title] project.
In sum, this book is about the sustainability of fresh expressions. What lessons are emerging, from expressions that survive and from those no longer present? How helpful are the support structures, of denominations and from Colleges? What insights might emerge as wider, sociological shifts are considered?
These are not asked as pragmatic questions. I write not as an investor in some Ecclesial Dragons’ Den, tossing up whether to invest the money of a previous generation in either a new monastic dream or suburban youth plant, expecting a return calculable in a Diocesan head count
I write because this is personal …
and so I shift into practical theology, the place of personal narrative, in theological reflection.
