How to Move Your Congregation to the Leading Edge

November 14, 2016Amy Asin

Twenty-first century congregational leaders face many challenges that require innovation and agility, while they also grapple with concerns Jewish leaders have encountered for generations. To assist in this holy work, the URJ has issued an enhanced edition of Moving to the Leading Edge: A Resource and Discussion Guide to Move Your Congregation Forward.

Written by lay and professional experts who are innovating in congregations today, Moving to the Leading Edge offers thought pieces about relevant topics in congregational life. Use this resource and the accompanying discussion guides as food for thought, to launch community conversations, to begin board or committee meetings, and more. May it prompt innovation, inspire sacred action, and help move your congregation to the leading edge.

Let us know if you find Moving to the Leading Edge useful and how we can help you best use it in your congregation.
