Tina Waldrom speaks with Reverend Scott Hawkins about Leading a Church into the Community. Scott has ‘skin in the game’. As the senior minister at Urban Life, he is highly involved in the local community. His congregation are following his example. For Scott, it’s imperative that he does what he’s asking others to do. For Scott, a church that is highly involved in the community is the model he’s committing to. With 35+ years of ministry experience, working in many denominations and Christian organisations, he’s clear on what church needs to look like. Scott talks about the community work that Urban Life does and the weekend service the church offers.

Scott was once referred to as a ‘mongrel pastor’. Having been involved in many denominations, he has a perspective that is unique and refreshing. Having worked for Compassion Australia, he has insights that are also invaluable for the local church. Having worked for both larger and smaller churches and having planted churches, he is in a unique position to evaluate church models. He comments on why he is now Leading a Church into the Community and how that looks.

In this episode, Scott talks about his ministry journey and how important it is for him to lead by example. Bringing Jesus into a community can be both complicated and challenging. Scott explains the simple and natural ways for churches to partner with God in their locality. He and his church are seeking the Kingdom of God in any given situation and doing their best to perceive where God is at work. And to join in. There are many great insights for all believers in this episode. Leading a Church into the Community is an exciting discussion.
