ABOUT THE FUTURING CHURCH

The Futuring Church is an evolving movement that was born out of Rob's Doctorate of Ministry project. It came to recognize that church leadership teams frequently do not prioritize the leading of the Spirit when considering their preferred future. In response, the project set out to equip church leadership teams with a corporate spirit-led future thinking mindset in order to shift their futuring posture to one of spirit-empowered hopeful expectancy.

Wait, what? Huh?

What if church leaders, both laity and clergy, committed to being leaders who were led by Jesus? What if they ensured that an important part of their leadership role included learning practical skills for individual and group spiritual discernment? What if these skills were valued as highly as programming, financial management, organization, and people management?

The Futuring Church can be a spiritual movement that seeks to develop tools for faith-based teams to unleash the power of Futures Thinking Literacy, Ignation group spiritual discernment practices, Open and Relational theological mindset, and the future-oriented nature of the Gospel. We can be a movement that can release our collective imagination, with God and each other, to navigate TOGETHER into the future.

TESTIMONIALS

Rob's coaching digs deeper, cutting through the circumstantial to the spiritual bedrock that provides the foundation for work. He leads from a place of holy discernment, never relegating the Holy Spirit's work to the periphery, but centering who God is and what God is doing as the leading question--- and answer! Rob's spiritual acumen provides next-level coaching. His thoughtful discernment and commitment to prayer, coupled with real-life experience and expertise, is a blessing. I'm grateful for his insight and guidance.
