We need to get better at networking - with Archie Poulos

Archie Poulos has spent the last few years working on a PHD analysing the 10 key roles of a minister, and how we are going at each of them. He’s spoken to 312 clery across sydney and analysed their responses. 

One key weakness Archie identifies in Christian leaders have is a failure to partner together. He says if we don’t learn to network and work together, our organisations won’t stand the test of time. 

We discuss key ministry opportunities and how partnering together can help ensure more long term success, including youth and helping people transfer between Churches when they move. 

Archie challenges us to consider how we can work together for the good of the gospel rather than reverting to ‘subtribes’.

Archie Poulos is the co-director of the Center for Ministry Development at Sydney’s Moore Theological College and he brings light to these questions in this interview.
