Leading Ideas is a free biweekly e-newsletter issued by the Lewis Center for Church Leadership of Wesley Theological Seminary in Washington, DC. The Lewis Center is committed to helping congregations and denominations thrive and grow by providing ideas, research, resources, and training for vital and fruitful leadership.

Leading Ideas features articles by thoughtful, cutting-edge leaders on subjects you care about — navigating change, reaching younger people, financing your ministry, communicating effectively — and help you be the leader God is calling you to be.

Leading Ideas includes vignettes of leaders and congregations, book reviews, leadership quotes, and helpful "right questions" built around the premise that leaders don't need answers — they need to know the right questions.

Also, every four weeks subscribers receive the Lewis Center Update with news of church leadership research, programs, events, and resources at the Lewis Center and elsewhere.

Thousands of clergy and lay leaders from across the US and around the world make use of this important leadership resource. Here are some reader comments.

There is always something in Leading Ideas to make me reflect more deeply about my own leadership in the church.

I appreciated your articles today in Leading Ideas. I think you hit the nail on the head!

Thanks for your timely and useful material. I often use it for sermons and newsletter articles.
