Join Dr. Sarah Han, Linda Nicholls, and Father James Mallon for an interactive, one-hour webinar on a recent book release, The Stories Congregations Tell: Flourishing in the Face of Transition and Change. The Stories Congregations Tell features detailed case study research from seven dynamic Canadian congregations across theological traditions and geographical regions.

Readers will encounter narratives that congregations tell themselves through a myriad of congregational and social transitions, accounts that shape how congregations interpret, frame, approach, and ultimately flourish in ministry. This book offers social scientific analysis and theological reflection on the stories congregations tell and the function those stories play for a congregation’s culture, along with practical and hopeful applications to arise from this research.
