On this first episode of the NEW YEAR we welcome Doug Paul. Doug is the author of Ready or Not: Kingdom Innovation for a Brave New World. We’ll talk with Doug about innovation and specifically what the church looked like PRE COVID and what it can look like now.
We’ll talk about his 5 phases of Kingdom Innovation and more, this week and next.
The 5 Phases of Kingdom Innovation
Identification – We must locate the big idea and frame the problem we’re trying to solve.
Ideation – We must generate whole new practices, concepts, and ways of thinking if we’re going
to solve our innovation challenge.
Experimentation – We launch, test, adjust, and relaunch the innovation until the prototype we
are testing achieves the measured goals set out.
Mobilization – Once our prototype has seen breakthrough, we need to know why and how it
worked so that we can mobilize many to multiply it.
Multiplication – Make the innovation scalable, removing as many barriers as possible, for as
many people as possible, so we can invite them all into a brand new breakthrough.
