Fresh Expressions, creating small, focused, creative, meaningful pockets of religious community beyond the church walls isn't meant to be one more thing on the pastor's schedule. It's not meant to be pastor led at all. Normal lay folks should be one the ones taking lead, and the pastor serves as trainer, permission giver, and recruiter. This has deep roots both in New Testament history and in Methodist history. We are all meant to go and make disciples - in our dog parks, in our tattoo parlors, in our coffee shops.
