David R. Leading a Church to Maturity in Love

Annotation

Churches are intended to be inclusive communities of love, yet the reality is often different, and leaders find themselves needing to resolve conflict and ease tensions within the community, as they are attempting to facilitate change. David Robert Tomlinson draws on systems thinking and conflict resolution techniques originating in the Anabaptist tradition as well as on his extensive experience in ordained ministry and offers practical guidance and a vision for constructive church leadership that can indeed facilitate churches that are rooted and grounded in love and can embrace change with confidence and resilience.
