Testimonials
TMN team is so integrated and the most helpful resource in our journey. They are passionate about living this out and exude certainty and confidence, not in answers, but in walking together and the faithfulness of the Spirit.
Julianne Barlow, Senior Pastor, Evangelical Lutheran Church in CanadaOur engagement with TMN gave us energy, fuel and methodology for shift to the neighbourhood. We also gained new skills and hope for re-engaging the denomination.
Jeff Savage, Pastor, American Baptist ChurchWe are on the right track with TMN. We are doing some things that are long and hard and slow, but it is making a real difference.
Sheryl Kinder-Pyle, Executive Leader, PC USAI felt very supported throughout the process with TMN. A key learning was that you cannot be on this journey alone. There have to be others to coach, support and reflect with you. We need to learn in community and have mutual support and accountability.
