Disrupting MinistryBONUS Episode: Staff MeetingA lot of times when we get into ministry, we place the pressure on ourselves to be the ones who make the change, who bring about something new. When, in fact, if we just remembered that God is about that work of doing something new already, then we get to actually watch what's emerging through the Holy Spirit's work and in a context. -Rev. Abigail Visco RusertPart One—The Gathering(0:00-2:22)Host Megan DeWald invites her colleagues at the Institute for Youth Ministry, the Rev.

Disrupting MinistryStill AbidingWe were on a path that we thought we knew how to do, and we needed to have that pushed so far aside that there really was room for the Holy Spirit to come in and do something new. And that's what wound up happening! Even what we're doing now is nothing of the pieces that we put down on paper in that process and everything of the spirit of it. -Rev.

And if that's not God building something in the community, I don't know what is. -Kelsey LambrightPart One—From Tragedy to Transformation(0:00-5:04)Host Megan DeWald sets the stage for understanding the context in which Calvary Episcopal Church in Rochester, Minnesota is developing a new form of youth ministry through the Institute for Youth Ministry's Log College Project.2021-01-2937 min
Disrupting MinistryCentral Avenue, MiddletownI think that was really liberating, the first time that we heard from the voice of Princeton that 'we expect you to fail, and it's okay! And we will learn from that failure, and "fail forward" is a thing'... And so to really benefit from the innovation process or the design process, you have to embrace that value, or it doesn't work. -Lisa KauferPart One—More Than a Single Story(0:00-5:07)Host Megan DeWald sets the stage for understanding the context in which the First Presbyterian Church of Middletown, Ohio is developing a new form of...2021-01-2034 min
Disrupting MinistryEverything Is Youth MinistryIt's really interesting to me that this project that William Tennant did with young people, to me, it's youth ministry. To me, Princeton Theological Seminary’s founding was a youth ministry project. And so, I thought, ‘okay, if we're supposed to do something, that's in line with our mission, vision, and values, why not go back to our founding?’ Arguably, our founding was via youth ministry. Let’s lean into that. -Rev. Abigail Visco RusertPart One—Introducing: Disrupting Ministry(0:00-6:36)Host Megan DeWald introduces the Rev.
