Episode notes

The chapter explores the implementation and growth of the Rooted program at Mariners Church, focusing on its impact on discipleship strategies and serving within the church. It discusses how Rooted originated from a church in Kenya and has expanded to serve 2,000 churches, providing a starting point for individuals to connect, build community, and serve in their gifts. Emphasizing the program's role in addressing various challenges and nurturing faith, the chapter highlights Rooted as a space for shared learning, experiences, and putting faith into action.

It is possible to integrate serving into your spiritual formation strategy in a practical and effective way. We’re seeing churches all across the country do it.

In recent years, churches we serve have been telling us they love The Rooted Experience.

So, in part four of this series on Serving as Spiritual Formation, Tony interviews Pastor John Thomas from Mariners Church in California about The Rooted Experience. John shares how Rooted is helping people connect to faith and the church, why it is so effective and how Mariners Church encourages people to engage in serving opportunities as part of their spiritual formation.
