The way that local churches are run is changing dramatically as many denominations deal with numbers of stipendiary clergy falling and new forms of ordained and lay ministries emerging. Churches are grouped together more and more, while many are exploring entirely new ways of being church - through initiatives like Fresh Expression and Mission Shaped Church.

All of this raises questions about what new patterns of leadership are needed to meet changing circumstances. This book provides techniques and solutions in relation to: Developing lay leadership; Building team ministry; Leading a group of congregations; Nurturing new forms of ministry; Sustaining new models of church; and more.
