PALS Study Topics – Transition: Seminary to Urban & Inner City or Rural & Small Town

by Rev. Dr. Steve Schave and Rev. Todd Kollbaum

Module: Transition Topics

Pastors called to a congregation in an urban or rural setting often experience a steep learning curve
when they are unfamiliar with the new context. This course aims to assist the pastor and his family
in making the contextual transition without feeling alienated and isolated. Included in this course
are interviews and conversations with pastors currently serving in these unique settings.
