Session 3: Five Shifts for a Renewed Church

Before watching the video, engage with the necessary prompts in the study guide.

In this session, leaders are introduced to five key mindset and practice shifts essential for meaningful church renewal. David Kinnaman of Barna guides participants in re-centering on holistic well-being and spiritual flourishing rather than relying solely on metrics like attendance or budgets.

The session invites leaders to examine their ministry’s current state, openness to change and readiness to support both congregational and personal growth. Through reflection, prayer, and open discussion, participants are encouraged to prioritize Christ at the center of ministry, allowing God’s vision to shape their strategies. This session empowers leaders to take practical steps toward a Spirit-led, people-focused approach in their church.
