As adults, however, we tend to hesitate and often need assistance in learning ways to effectively work together. Potentials works to help teams, communities, and organizations collaborate in ways that advance their greater mission. Sometimes, this is the process by which two communities come together to imagine a share future. Sometimes, specific programs or leaders find ways to work together in ways that maximize the resources of both rather than replicating one another’s work. For most organizations, collaborations is not an add-on dimension of their processes; it is integral to who and how they serve.

It is designed to reconnect the congregation and church leaders to God’s call and their “why”. Or, in examining that “why” redefine their call, mission and vision.

There are multiple reasons that congregations reach a legacy moment in which they do not have a viable future including changing demographics, inability to bridge generational changes, increased age and decreasing capacity of current leadership, decreased resources or, deferred facility maintenance.
