Nov 20th, 2024Multivocational Church? How might we have a good conversation?

Join us for a conversational online webinar.

What helps churches thrive with multivocational leaders? Canadian tentmakers answered this question in a national research project (a quarter of the interviewees were from Mennonite Church Canada churches). Engage in conversation with the lead interviewer to discern how this may (or may not) affect the future of your church.

James Watson and his wife Cathi joined a Mennonite Church Eastern Canada (MCEC) church plant during the final year of his seminary training. Everyone in leadership at that plant were tentmakers – they had other work/employment outside of the church. After four years as an administrator in the MCEC office, he became a mission worker with Outreach Canada offering training, coaching, and resources to planters interdenominationally. He was hired in 2008 by The Salvation Army as a congregational health and planting consultant and has continued to collaborate interdenominationally in research and training on a variety of missiological issues (church planting, immigrant settlement, evangelism, tentmaking, congregational flourishing). He completed his PhD in missiology at Fuller Theological Seminary.
