Ministry
My ministry style could probably best be described as collaborative and adaptive. Serving nine congregations in settled and interim ministry over the course of fourteen years I have adapted to the needs of each congregation differently. The people in Macon, Georgia thought I was an extrovert. The people in Newark, Delaware think that I am an introvert. Other congregations might say that I was confrontational and I know that other congregations thought that I was the "peacemaker." I have served Unitarian Universalist congregations that were theologically liberal Christian and congregations that were primarily Humanist.
The ministerial style that I feel most at home with though is pastoral with a strong leaning to adult religious education. My entry into Unitarian Universalist movement came through adult programming and I have found that I am skilled in spiritual and intellectual exploration with adults. |
