Virtual Front Door - Practical Tools to Start With
This week, we're letting you in on the details of one of the first of four major initiatives that we’ll be launching through the support of the Lilly Endowment. This one is all about digital ministry, and we’re calling it the Virtual Front Porch Initiative. For those of you wondering what small steps you could take right now to improve your church’s website, experiment with social media, or think differently about your digital welcome we’ve gathered a few trusted resources.
Rediscovering The Art of Dynamic Bible Study
Sometimes, the best conversations aren't planned. This week on the podcast, we’re sharing an impromptu, off-camera moment that turned into something too good not to share. Dr. Derek Suderman, a Hebrew Bible scholar from Conrad Grebel University College, sat down with us to talk about Bible study—what it is, what it isn’t, and what it could be.
A New Imagination for Ministry: Rev. Rebekah Mitchell and the Future of Congregational Life
As we wrap up Season 2 of the Ministry Forum Podcast, we’re closing with a conversation that invites us not just to think differently about bivocational ministry—but to imagine ministry itself in a new way.
In our final episode, Rev. Rebekah Mitchell of St. Peter’s in Madoc joins Ministry Forum intern Sara Traficante to reflect on her unique call—a call that weaves together congregational leadership, community mental health, and the deeply spiritual work of psychotherapy.
