Late last year Lynn Green sat down to discuss Leadership and Eldership in Youth With A Mission, and to answer some questions that people around the world had about the changes and development of it in YWAM. Lynn Green spoke with Lynn Yee for three different sessions, which we’ve put together into this podcast so that you can hear it all in a single session.
Some of the questions that they address in this podcast are:
- Plural Leadership
- What is an Elder
- The role of conveners in YWAM
- Why the need for the significant organisational change for YWAM in Singapore in 2014
- How does YWAM’s flat leadership structure work cross-culturally
- The importance of relationship over hierarchy
- Accountability structures
- more …
Lynn Green and his wife Marti first came to England and began the work of Youth With A Mission there in 1971. From 2004-2011 Lynn was YWAM’s International Chairman. He continues to convene YWAM’s global leadership meetings, and focuses much of his energy on international leadership development. Lynn Green also blogs at lynngreen.net, where you can find more of his thoughts and teachings.
If you head over to the YWAM Teaching Podcast web-site, ywampodcast.net/teaching, you can subscribe to future teachings, find a link to Lynn’s blog, and share this podcast with others.
Hi Lynn.
I just watched your Friday broadcast on eldership in YWAM. As someone who has not been a part of YWAM for many years now, although still in good fellowship, I found your thoughts helpful. I have observed some odd responses to the moves in YWAM Australia to the Elders hip model and as an outsider been confused. Thank you for tour explanations. I think you may have to keep talking about it for some time as it seems to me not everyone gets it.
We will be in the UK around Easter next year. Hopefully we will get to see you and Marti while we are there. Blessings my friend.
