Fresh Expressions (FX)

'Fresh Expressions' is a major ecumenical movement among several member churches of Churches Together in England. The major 2004 Church House report Mission-shaped church: church planting and fresh expressions of church in a changing context documented some of the early prototypes of contextual church planting. Drawing on wisdom from cross cultural mission and with a commitment to listening, serving, making disciples and growing new ecclesial communities fresh expressions in 2019 has entered a new phase of developing as a movement. Research from the Methodist Church entitled Methodism's Hidden Harvest has been released charting the last 15 years of growth. You can download it here.
