Compassion and Leadership with Joanna Collicutt
Is ministry really more complex than other leadership roles? Is it helpful for us to view ourselves as leaders, and in the midst of all the other complexity we experience, how can we understand our role in a healthy way? Joanna Collicutt is a psychologist and priest in the Church of England. As we consider challenges like trauma, identity and anxiety she explains why self-compassion and finding joy even in the tough phases of ministry might be the most important skills we cultivate.

Trust and Leadership with Chuck DeGroat
Trust is an essential part of any human relationship. But how do we rebuild trust and heal the hurt when trust has been broken? What does that look like for individuals - and what about the whole church, in a season when many people have lost trust in that wider institution or a particular tradition? How do we balance the need for justice and the mission with needing time to heal and process? Chuck DeGroat has a particular interest in supporting people and churches in the aftermath of abuse or when damage has been done. Join us as we think about trust, vulnerability and what it looks like to start again. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Theology and Leadership with Selina Stone
What does it look like to attend well to issues of power when we articulate theology and the Bible? How might our own experiences, biases and even tradition or culture influence the way we teach, maximising some voices but minimising others? Join us as we talk with Dr Selina Stone, a theologian from the University of Edinburgh, and press into what we need to understand about theology, power and the impact it can have on those who are most vulnerable.

Innovation and Leadership with Chris Curtis
We all come to leadership with expectations of what it might need to look like. But what do you do when the surrounding culture requires a change of direction? What does innovative leadership look like - and when we face challenging situations, how do we tease apart the good from the bad or even the ugly? Chris Curtis has a leadership trackrecord over decades, first pioneering what became Youthscape - a national youth work organisation based in Luton but with a national reach and influence - but also in youth work in the local church. Join us as he shares lessons he has learned from the unexpected moments - including the pandemic - and why the team around you is so important. Hosted on Acast.

When leadership goes wrong we hear about it in the headlines, and it rightly stimulates important conversations. But do we talk enough about the changes we need to make and what it looks like to lead well, particularly as we manage the unusual tensions and pressures of church leadership? Join Kate and Justin as they interview respected experts from a variety of perspectives and really dig into the issues that matter, asking what needs to change so that our leadership is healthy for us, for those we lead, and for the cultures and communities we are becoming. Exploring core themes like culture, power, courage and compassion, this is essential listening for all Christian leaders processing, pondering and praying about how we lead in this season.➡️ Find the show notes for each episode in the episode description🔗 Find more content like this on myspringharvest.com Hosted on Acast.
