How do we connect—genuinely, meaningfully, deeply—with people outside our church’s walls?

In a time of declining attendance and dwindling budgets, we all know the old programs aren’t working like they used to. If you’re a church leader, you may be feeling stuck and disheartened.

The good news? God is already at work in your neighborhood.

Instead of creating new programs, what if you gave yourself permission to do things a little differently—to meet your neighbors where they are, listen to their stories, and create spaces where belonging and discovery can grow?

What if meaningful connection starts with simply being present?

Join us for a transformative conversation with Dave Male, Co-Director of Vision and Strategy for the Church of England and Visiting Instructor, Luther Seminary and one of the world’s leading educators in cultivating creative forms of church that reach people in today’s changing world. Drawing from years of experience helping congregations discover fresh expressions of church, Dave will share practical wisdom for meeting people where they are—in their workplaces, neighborhoods, and everyday gathering spaces.
