In fact, often we stifle innovation when we look for simple or technical answers. Instead, we think a critical key to change is asking better questions. This is especially true in an age of constant disruption and disequilibrium.We also agree with futurist Rex Miller (quoting William Gibson) that the future is here—it’s just not evenly distributed. This means that somewhere, out there, leaders are already working on adaptive strategies to address change. Our goal is to find, gather, and learn with them. Often these leaders are passionate, frustrated with the status quo, and enjoy connecting with others around big questions. If you’re one of these leaders, MindShift is for you.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][divider line_type=”Full Width Line” line_thickness=”1″ divider_color=”default” custom_height=”120″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”center” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” bottom_margin=”40″ width=”2/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none” offset=”vc_col-md-offset-2″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1567787052298{margin-bottom: 20px !important;}”]

Although they represented different schools and organizations, and came from diverse backgrounds and walks of life, they all shared a common dissatisfaction with the resistance to change, entrenched and ineffective practice, and malaise toward innovation that they often observed in the Christian school movement. They nonetheless believed deeply in the mission and impact of Christian education–which was exactly why they were concerned about its future.Many of these educators and leaders had interacted with Rex Miller, a futurist and committed Christian who had pioneered a transformational process of dialogue and exploration called MindShift. Rex generously agreed to walk with this group of Christian educators as a mentor and friend, as they set out to embark on a Christian education MindShift. Gathering over 60 leading educators from across the U.S., Canada, and Australia, they journeyed together over the next two years through a Christian Education MindShift.
With support from leading organizations in Christian education as well as funding from the Christian Education Charitable Trust (Maclellan Foundation), the Christian Education MindShift involved strategic dialogues and visits to innovative schools throughout the United States (including the Silicon Valley, Chicago, and Texas), as well as Ontario, Canada, and the United Kingdom. The MindShift work became a focused theme of the 2019 Global Christian School Leadership Summit, where over 1100 Christian education leaders from around the world experienced MindShift firsthand. Insights from the Christian Education MindShift were captured in the book MindShift: Catalyzing Change in Christian Education, published in 2019 by ACSI. Also in 2019, the Seven MindShift Principles were made available, as a foundation for the networking, collaboration, and convening that is part of the ongoing MindShift work to catalyze change in Christian education.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left”
