“From the founding of Forward Movement to the present day, our work has remained constant: we aim to support ordinary Christians in their daily walk with Jesus Christ. We Episcopalians have welcomed many, but we have not always done an effective job at encouraging members to go deeper. The Center for Discipleship and Renewal seeks to help church leaders put discipleship at the center of congregations. By the power of the Holy Spirit, this can lead to transformed lives, growing churches, and a better world.
”
Scott Gunn
Executive Director of Forward Movement
