Listening to the Voice of the Pioneer
CCX outlines the vital lessons and insights gained from the experiences of pioneers in the Church - those trailblazers that exist beyond the familiar.
2024 saw the 20th anniversary of the publication of the Mission Shaped Church, a crucial report in identifying and celebrating the work of pioneers across the country. To mark this occasion, CCX set out to examine the contemporary landscape pioneers are navigating.
Listening to the Voice of the Pioneer highlights seven significant findings from the experiences of pioneers, and shares actions the Church can take to better support them. Our hope is that this research demonstrates the gift that this unique group of leaders is to the Church, as they create Christian communities among those with little or no connection with the established Church.
If you want to learn more about pioneering, or are working in this area and have something you want to share with CCX, please get in touch with Pioneer Developer Phil Hoyle at
