'Seize the Day' podcast #12 - February 2010: Bob Hopkins talks about how to make the transition to mid-sized missional communities. (17 mins)

Breaking the 'Sunday Service' model is one of the biggest challenges. For instance, even here at St. Thomas's (where we've been on the leadership in one form or another over fifteen years while we've been on this journey) - even six or seven years in, when certain changes happened, we saw people flipping straight back, in their cluster life, to thinking that they had to get a guitar and a worship group for thirty people, and, yes, have some sort of a preach...

In this podcast, we're talking for the third time to Bob Hopkins about clusters, or mid-sized missional communities. This month, we're talking about how to make the transition.

Bob and his wife Mary work with Anglican Church Planting Initiatives. They have pioneered the 'Clusters' approach to missional church-planting, at St. Thomas Crookes church in Sheffield, and now in a growing number of churches around the world.

This is the third of three conversations with Bob Hopkins. In November we were talking about what the clusters model is, and in December we discussed how clusters balance gathering for worship with scattering in mission.
