The Pastor's Heart with Dominic Steele
Regathering + caring for the COVID cautious - with Nigel Fortescue, Sandy Grant, Murray Campbell & Lee McMunn
Show Notes

Churches in New South Wales will be permitted to re-open for vaccinated people once the vaccination rate reaches 70%.  At 80%, vaccinated and unvaccinated people will be permitted by the government to come to church. 

Churches have the chance to pioneer people living together again, vaccinated and unvaccinated side by side. 

Lee McMunn says the great commandment is not ‘Live a zero risk life.’

How do you welcome all while keeping the vulnerable safe? But on the other hand how to avoid overfunctioning and blocking people from taking risks they are willing to take? 

How to have difficult ‘front door conversations’ that you never expected to have?  Plus how do you encourage ‘church workers’ to present vaccination certificates? 

A model of what to do when the pastor’s kids catch COVID.

We talk with four senior pastors, from St Ives in Sydney, Nigel Fortescue, from Wollongong, Sandy Grant, from Mentone in Melbourne, Murray Campbell, and from Scarborough in the UK, Lee McMunn.
