Transforming Emerging Congregations Into Missionary Outposts In The Episcopal Diocese of San Diego: A Strategic Plan
This thesis is a strategic plan for the Diocese of San Diego to transform emerging congregations into missionary outposts. It looks at the diocesan role in the process of congregational development as well as the role of individual congregations. Findings in this study show the importance of the diocesan community as emerging congregations face the challenges of the post-Christian world. The strategic plan offered here requires participation at all levels of diocesan life.
