For congregational teams! Join us for a conversational online webinar with James Watson. Tent-making has a long tradition in the Christian church. In the New Testament, Paul, Priscilla and Aquila, worked as tent-makers to support their ministries. From a contemporary perspective, tent-making or multi-vocational ministry, is drawing an increasing amount of attention. James Watson will guide our conversation to what the questions could, or should be, as churches and leaders consider Multivocational Ministry.
