Synopsis

Innovation often brings failure-and that's okay. Using failure to learn, improve, and continue innovating will help keep the church alive in the twenty-first century. That's the message of Edison Churches, which shares the stories of ten faith communities that embraced innovation, learned from their experiences, and forever impacted both their congregations and their communities in the process. God is inviting us to participate in doing a new thing; Edison churches are leading the way.
