November Study: Shared Narrative Leadership
As we approach the end of the year, we look at the role of leaders as "storytellers around the
campfire". Our goal is to communicate Calvary’s vision effectively, reframing institutional challenges into stories of adaptive opportunity.

● Suggested Reading: The Practicing Congregation, Chapter 6 (cont.): (pp. 98–102) and Afterword (pp. 103–105).
● Monthly Reflection Question: Instead of a story of "decline" (numbers and budgets), how can we tell a story of "adaptive opportunity" as we strive to retire our debt by 2027?
