Abstract

The project explores the nature of Christian community as an expression of the gifts of individuals. The congregation is interpreted through the language of organic community. Interventions are made in the congregation's worship, education, leadership and social gatherings. The project contains some reflection on the nature of organic community and the biblical and theological underpinnings. There is a reflection on the role of leadership in congregational change. There is observable evidence of adaptive and resonant leadership. The context is an Episcopal church in Connecticut and there are specific interventions that are unique to a sacramental, main line protestant church.
