Geoff and Joy explore with Kent Smith how to find a simpler foundational way to plant churches. His recent book, Relational Revolution, paves a way for birthing networks of joy fueled, Jesus led communities of practice that are equipping spiritual moms and dads to nurture ecosystems of grace. He says that while there is no a franchisable model for creating emotionally safe and healthy communities, a life of love is learned by practicing intergenerationally and interdependently.
