S1E3 | Steve Aisthorpe: Rewilding the Church

In this episode we hear from Steve Aisthorpe who shares a talk on Rewilding the Church at the Salvation Army's Emerge pioneer gathering in May 2021.

Steve works for the Church of Scotland as a Mission Development Worker, based in the Highlands. He has spent half his Christian life in one of the world’s fastest growing churches and half in one of the fastest declining. He is a researcher, writer and coach. His first book, The Invisible Church, reflects on research among Christians who are not engaged with a local church congregation. His latest book, Rewilding the Church, uses a powerful metaphor from ecology to offer a bold and provocative vision for the Church.
