The Pastor’s Heart with Dominic Steele
Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
Now, where and how for Sydney Anglicans - with Raj Gupta and Zac Veron
The future of the Anglican Church in Sydney.
We engage in a ‘Stockdale Paradox’ discussion, confronting the brutal facts about attendance, finances and National Church Life Survey data about mission, newcomers and maturity.
Plus we review the recent Sydney Anglican Synod debate where leader after leader poured out their heart.
We look at the hard facts and attempt to chart a way forward.
Zac Veron is the senior minister of Bayside Anglican Church, Sydney.
Raj Gupta is the senior minister of Carlingford Anglican Church, Sydney.
