How Every Church Can Pivot to Be Tov with Scot McKnight and Laura Barringer

How do we call out injustice and seek shalom without becoming self-righteous?

In their new book, Pivot: The Priorities, Practices, and Powers That Can Transform Your Church Into a Tov Culture, father-daughter duo Scot McKnight and Laura Barringer follow up their previous book, A Church Called Tov一charting a course for those seeking to create a healthier church culture.

In this episode, they share with Steve Carter:

• How healthier churches exist when leaders listen to the Spirit and surrender to his leading.

• How to build a church culture in which power is stewarded, not abused; where people are shepherded, not manipulated; where leadership is accountable, not untouchable.

• How to diagnose the health of your heart and team, even when everything looks “put-together” externally.

• How to respond thoughtfully to abuse and scandal in the digital age.

This book is a must-read for any pastor, leader, discipler, human, who aches to see the church become tov.
