It's 2020 but the church is still acting like it is 1982. Ten years into this gig, and we are still trying to help the church into the future. We are iPhone Pastors for a Typewriter church. And this is a podcast for conversations about ministry in the 21st century. Join Pastors Erik and Courtenay, a couple of Lutheran pastors, as they navigate the challenges of serving people and congregations who are holding onto the past with a death grip. We are exploring ministry in this new world and in the midst of a pandemic, no less. This is the Millennial Pastors Podcast.

So it seems that this global pandemic is still around. 6 months in and many of us are hitting a wall. Managing the stress of a congregation is daunting task for any leader. Understanding how and why a congregation or any group of people are acting the way they do is vitally important.
Pastors Courtenay and Erik discussion family systems theory as it applies to congregations and offer some thoughts on managing the system during a pandemic.
