| Welcome
to The Great Permission information page. This asset-based process for stewarding your congregation’s
maximum potential is outlined in this easy-to-read 140-page
field guide sent to all ELCA congregations in Fall 2002. It
includes theological background, case studies and how-tos for
congregational leaders — all directed toward an asset-based
approach to congregational life.
What
difference will this make to my congregation?
With this approach you will discover you have more assets than you
think. Your congregation’s culture will become more positive and
hopeful.
How will this help my leadership?
After mapping their assets, your leaders will be ready to make
decisions about what to do next and act quickly. They’ll have
new energy for the tasks ahead because it’ll be fun!
Where can I get started?
Try this approach with your stewardship committee, congregational council, youth
committee, adult forum series, or as a spiritual gifts inventory with new
members.
