Hello Friends!
Ministry leaders like you are hearing about the power of the familying for the formation of faith, and this news has been around for about 25 years now! Why haven’t we been able to figure out how to help the church structure itself around what actually has the greatest impact on people’s life of faith?
Welcome to Episode 9 of Vibrant Faith’s Podcast, Familying the Faith. Our purpose is to connect with ministry leaders who are ready to dig into engaging and uplifting parents, the primary faith-forming agents in our world, grow in their capacity and confidence as they share a vibrant faith in Jesus with the next generation.
This episode is a behind-the-scenes look at what our Vibrant Faith coaches actually DO to help churches make the big shift to what we call “home-centered, church supported” formation. You’ll love this thoughtful conversation with two of our amazing Vibrant Faith coaches.
Meet Jim Merhaut and Erik Samuelson.
Both Jim and Erik have been coaching with Vibrant Faith for years, and each has their own coaching practice as well. In this episode, they sit down for a conversation with our Director of Coaching, Jim LaDoux and talk through the realities of what it’s like to coach churches to take the next steps in moving their church’s formation culture to one that is ACTUALLY home-centered, and not just focused on the church’s programs.
You’ll learn so much that you can begin to put into practice about how they work with churches to develop a culture that promotes the faith of parents and the messages these churches convey to reinforce that. You’ll be able to see your own church in new ways as you listen to them talk about how they coach churches and ministry leaders toward a new way of being.
This was such just a great “behind-the-scenes” conversation with so much wisdom shared about actually making change happen.
This episode will help and encourage you to lead your church to take the next faithful step!
