I don't know about you, but I hate change. Change often marks the end of something, and so it brings with it the feeling of loss as well as uncertainty about the future. Living in a time of transition between the old and the new can be disorienting. So how do we keep our sense of stability and direction when the world seems to be shifting under our feet? Today's guest, Tod Bolsinger, author of Tempered Resilience and Canoeing the Mountains, inspired me to see God loving me through the change and to use the Ignatian Examen as a tool for leading others through uncertain times.

If we are called to keep watch, does it matter where we stand? If Jesus commands us to be ready, what pitfalls must we be aware of? This Sunday we looked at two advent pitfalls - a failure of nerve and a failure of heart (see Tod Bolsinger, Tempered Resilience). “Failure of nerve is caving to the pressure of the anxiety of the group to return to the status quo. It is a loss of courage to further the mission…Failure of heart is the “emotional cutoff” that occurs when the leader's discouragement leads them to psychologically abandon their people and the charge they have been given.” In the end we need more than awareness, we need to stand secure - well differentiated - in Christ.

Challenge. Change. Conflict. Sabotage. Whatever you may call it, the critical times of growth in ministry demand a set of leadership skills that aren't taught in seminary or come naturally. "Faith leaders are mostly trained to be teachers and chaplains, but a rapidly-changing, continually-disruptive world requires that they also become skilled at leading change when there are few best practices. Many leaders are growing frustrated and losing heart." This is the conviction that pastor, author and leadership expert Tod Bolsinger (Canoeing the Mountains, Tempered Resilience) brings to the table. Join us for a fascinating, insightful and extremely instructive conversation about ministry, those who engage in it, and how to develop resilience to thrive in the call God has given you.

Each church, each ministry organization, is situated in a unique context—a particular place and time and culture.  And that context, if we're paying attention and engaging with a posture of learning, will call forth creative new ways of serving and loving and blessing our neighbors.In this conversation, Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson discuss both the importance of knowing one's context and responding with creativity when discerning a church's ministry calling.THIS EPISODE'S HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:Tod Bolsinger is the Executive Director of Fuller Seminary's Church Leadership Institute, as well as the author of Canoeing the Mountains and Tempered Resilience.Now that we're coming out of the pandemic, many of us think about going “back.”  But what would we be going back to?Ronald Heifetz says that a crisis can give us the will to address issues we didn't want to address before.A crisis has an acute phase and an adaptive phase.The future of one's church will be built on the healthiest version of its “charism,” it's gift.Each church has been uniquely gifted for its particular context.Leaders are shaped more by their context than by the reading they do or the education they receive.Leaders and pastors need to pay attention to the pain points of their communities and reflect on how their church's charism can address those pain points.  And how will that require us to change?Tod Bolsinger shares an amazing story of a church in Austin, TX, that took on the challenge of economic inequality in their community by buying medical debt.This sparked all kinds of ministry creativity in that church.Markus Watson shares the story of Westmorland Community Presbyterian Church and the Food Pantry they started in their small, rural town.The Church Leadership Institute is offering the Online Adaptive Capacity Cohort to help churches and pastors discover their charism and how to serve creatively in their contexts.RELEVANT RESOURCES AND LINKS:Online Adaptive Capacity CohortClick HERE for more infoClick HERE to apply (mention Spiritual Life and Leadership for a $500 scholarship)Books mentioned:Canoeing the Mountains by Tod BolsingerTempered Resilience by Tod BolsingerBeyond Thingification by Markus WatsonReviews help listeners find this podcast.  To leave a review of Spiritual Life and Leadership:Click HERE.Click on the link that says, "Listen on Apple Podcasts."In the window that opens, click the button thThe Online Adaptive Capacity Cohort, an 18-month process in which you and your team will learn how to lead adaptively in a changing world and you'll learn how to discern God's unique calling for you and your church.

Episode 161 - Tempered Resilience With Tod Bolsinger, Part 1 Episode sponsored by DiverseChurchJobs.com What type of leadership is needed in a moment that demands adaptive change?  Tod Bolsinger, author of Canoeing the Mountains, is uniquely positioned to explore the qualities of adaptive leadership in contexts ranging from churches to nonprofit organizations. He deftly examines both the external challenges we face and the internal resistance that holds us back. Bolsinger writes: "To temper describes the process of heating, holding, hammering, cooling, and reheating that adds stress to raw iron until it becomes a glistening knife blade or chisel tip." When reflection and relationships are combined into a life of deliberate practice, leaders become both stronger and more flexible. As a result, these resilient leaders are able to offer greater wisdom and skill to the organizations they serve. Tod Bolsinger is the Vice-President for Vocation and Formation and Assistant Professor of Practical Theology at Fuller Theological Seminary. For seventeen years, he was the Senior Pastor of San Clemente Presbyterian Church in San Clemente, California, after serving for ten years at First Presbyterian Church of Hollywood.
