Book excerpt: Clergy, Church Staff, and Lay Leaders want to lead change, yet know their congregations are not ready. Farming Church provides clear guidance for readying congregations for deep, adaptive change. The Readiness Indicator, an inventory assessing the congregation's openness to change, is included in each book. Through Farming Church, readers are equipped to use the Seven Key Cultivations for readying the growing environment (congregation) for adaptive change. Rather than initiate change which withers on the vine, the Farming Church Ministry Plan increases the likelihood that Christ-centered adaptation will flow from the efforts of congregational leaders.Mark Tidsworth actively engages the intersection of God, faith, Church, and culture. Starting Pinnacle Leadership in 2008, Mark serves as its President. A wide variety of vocational experiences equip Mark with an expansive perspective and integrated approach regarding congregational leadership; including coach, trainer, consultant, pastor, non-profit organization director, therapist, business-owner. Frequently Mark is a speaker and presenter with congregations, denominational gatherings, and clergy gatherings. Farming Church is Mark's fifth book, all of which are found at Pinnacle Leadership Press or on Amazon. Columbia, South Carolina is the basecamp for Pinnacle and the community from which Mark lives, works, and plays.
