Urban Sustainability Research

Why This Research Matters

Years of serving in under-resourced urban communities revealed a gap between theory and real-life ministry challenges. This research was born out of a desire to understand what truly sustains churches and leaders over the long haul—spiritually, organizationally, and relationally.

​
