What if the church's greatest strength isn't in repeating what's worked elsewhere, but in learning to improvise within our unique contexts? Dr. Mark Glanville, jazz pianist and Old Testament scholar, invites us to discover a more vibrant way of being church through the art of improvisation.
Join us for this fascinating exploration of how churches can become more authentic, contextual, and vibrant by learning the art of spiritual improvisation. Then experience it firsthand at the upcoming ”Blessed Are the Undone” workshop with Dr. Glanville on June 6-7 in Victoria.
