A practical book for congregations interested in bringing clarity and focus to their ministry, The Nested Bowls defines and reframes the purpose of values, mission, and ends in congregational life, and provides an engaging, meaningful process for the entire congregation to inform the board's articulation of these foundational policies. Distilling ten years of Unity Consulting's experience in this work, The Nested Bowls offers both road map and inspiration for finding the core of your congregation's purpose and the difference it makes in people's lives.
