Eden - God’s Secret Weapon for Urban Transformation. Steve Small.

Steve Small is passionate about Jesus and mission, especially in our urban estates and schemes. Steve is part of the staff team at Ivy Church leading us on deployment for mission. He has three young boys and is married to Sarah and together they head up the Eden Network for the Message Trust.   

Anthony says... “When I first came back to Manchester, Steve was one of the first people I met at Ivy Church where he had been a member for some years. From day one, the way he’s always shone is through servanthood. Anyone who knows Steve will tell you he epitomises the phrase ‘servant leadership’, always first to step up and bless others somehow. That kind of leadership is all too rare and that’s why at Ivy we have a phrase that we all want to ‘Be More Steve.’  

God gives grace to the humble and I know you’ll enjoy learning about the call and journey of Steve’s life and ministry to where together with Sarah he now leads the Eden Network, going to the places of greatest need, where the church is in deepest decline, urban missionaries are raised up to live sacrificially, share Jesus joyfully, and build true community.”
