Alban at Duke Divinity helps congregational leaders connect and learn from one another.
关于我们
Alban at Duke Divinity School helps leaders connect and learn from one another by sharing practical wisdom, stories of thriving congregations and transformational models of ministry.
Through our work with congregations and the networks that support them, we have observed three trends:
- Congregations are hungry to learn what is effective in other congregations and learn best from each other, but they have limited opportunities to do so.
- Denominational and thought leaders address issues that impact congregations, but they often work in isolation from each other.
- All leaders need ready access to innovative ideas and practical resources.
Alban is uniquely positioned to respond to these trends, offering ready access to books, online publications, and learning opportunities.
Together with our partners, we enable congregations to connect and learn from one another so that they might flourish and impact their communities and the world.

"The way congregations make decisions is important," writes Prince Rivers. "It can influence the quality of the decision and determine the degree to which decisions are adopted. In fact, congregations are often called to go beyond decision-making. In many instances, churches need to organize and establish practices so they can discern together." https://lnkd.in/eDBytyVN

Carving out time to reflect on our experiences is a critical habit for leaders, writes Prince Rivers. We learn, not by experiences alone, but by our reflections on them. https://lnkd.in/gadXBj-k

Leaders are often selected due to their ambition. Ambition is not all bad, but is it the best indicator of future leadership effectiveness? We may have to look harder to find the leaders God has called. https://lnkd.in/gQiH8bUn

During Advent, we get to shine a light on a different kind of power. This power is animated by the Spirit of God and embodied in Jesus of Nazareth. This power is a gift from God and must be honored and stewarded as such. This week's Alban Weekly: https://lnkd.in/dNxpM68i
