They discuss a quote from Scott Thumma about the hybrid and customizable nature of the world and its implications for congregations.

Together, they discuss practical strategies for pastors to navigate these challenges and ensure congregations reflect the ever-changing world.
Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson discuss this quote from Scott Thumma in Episode 198: Clergy, Congregations, and Hope After the Pandemic:
“Our world is customizable. It is on demand. It is hybrid. It’s virtual as much as it is in person. In the rest of our lives we’ve come to understand that’s how the rest of the world works. So, we really have to think about how do we make our congregations reflect that.”
THIS EPISODE'S HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:
- Scott Thumma suggests that our world has become customizable, on-demand, and virtual, and calls for congregations to reflect the changes in the wider world.
- Tod Bolsinger emphasizes that adaptive leadership is not just about technical solutions, but about values, behaviors, and attitudes.
- The decrease in people's willingness to adapt beyond the crisis is observed, signifying the tendency to revert to the familiar when the crisis has passed.
- Wise and enduring change requires self-reflection and a shift from short-term crisis adaptations to long-term adaptation in a changing environment.
- Tod Bolsinger recommends that congregations start by identifying their deepest values and then being willing to change everything else to align with those values.
