Frequently Asked Questions

Wherever possible we ask churches to cover the travelling and other expenses of the staff member and/or Minister(s) leading the event, and we also ask you to consider making a donation towards our work. But the bottom line is that we never want money to be an obstacle to churches accessing our ministry.

We hope that after reading this website you are beginning to feel that you know us! ReSource is well known in churches where it has ministered, but for many years it ran with a small staff team and never quite managed to deploy Ministers to extend its reach. The Director and Trustees are building a re-shaped organisation which we hope will mean that fewer and fewer churches have never heard of us!

Through 2017/2018, ReSource went through an extensive period of review to check that God still has a role for us, and to define how we can best serve the church. We are not the only people who bring a focus on the person and work of the Holy Spirit, but it is a passion and specialism that we can offer alongside all the great work that retreat centres do and denominational training can offer.

Well, the first thing to say is that we thank God for New Wine and their national conferences and leadership support, and we count each other as friends. ReSource’s focus is specifically on the person and work of the Holy Spirit and on smaller churches in the mainstream. We work across church traditions without a preference for any particular worship style or church culture. And we generally work on a come-to-you basis rather than through national events.

Infact, Yes. The charity is formally ReSource for Anglican Renewal Ministries, hence the ARM in our web address and email addresses. However, ARM took on the Springboard emphasis on mission and evangelism when ReSource was founded in 2004, adding a missional dimension to the mainly renewal work of ARM.

The answer is a genuine and enthusiastic Yes. Our ministry values are found in the About section of the website, and this is the best place to find out about the things that make us tick as a ministry. We come from a place of theological orthodoxy and fully embrace the contemporary work of the Holy Spirit. We always shape our approach to the culture and tradition of the churches we are working with.

The answer is Yes! We will need to be clear how we can best help, but our whole ministry is committed to seeing small and mid-size churches supported and served, so please approach us, however small your church might be.
