Proost formerly gathered creative materials from the edges of Church and made them available more widely. In the past, we used labels like 'emerging church' or 'small missional groups' or 'alternative worship'. We are now at the point of reviving Proost, but this requires a lot of conversation and thought about what, why and a how. Some of this is happening over on our main podcast and Facebook group.In the meantime, this is our first group chat—an open space on zoom to talk through some of the chat we have been having so far. Unsurprisingly, a lot of the chat is about Church—what it is, whether we want to preserve it, whether Proost exists to work with Church as we know it, or to look beyond into the diaspora of people who have left, or to those who would never go in the first place. Some of us have a deep love for what remains, others want to move on.
