Melanie Cave chats with Chris Barnett, Executive General Manager of Intergen in Australia. Chris shares his insights on building relationships across generations, emphasizing that being intergenerational is all about deepening those connections beyond just age-specific programs.
We explore the core values that define successful intergenerational ministry, including mutuality, reciprocity, and equality, and address the often-overlooked theology of the child, discussing how we can spiritually receive from children's contributions.
Through this conversation, Chris outlines practical steps for churches to move from being multi-generational to intentionally intergenerational. Discover the significance of relationship-building in truly thriving intergenerational worship communities.
This episode is filled with practical advice, from suggested reading to actionable steps like the five Ps, to help churches integrate intergenerational practices effectively.
