Episode 67: Keri Ladouceur
In this episode Keri Ladouceur talks about the church pacing culture, truly embodying Jesus, giving voice to the marginalized, and the hope that comes in facing reality in the current moment we are in.
Keri Ladouceur serves a pastor in Naperville, Illinois and is founder and lead coach at New Ground Network. As a coach, Keri partners with pastors and denominational leaders, co-conspiring with them to seize their unique vision, develop their team's capacity, and mobilize people for mission. Her coaching was shaped as a former marketplace executive and senior leader at Willow Creek. She has more than sixteen years experience coaching pastors, non-profit, and marketplace leaders. The thrill of launching more than 90 missional communities and having a front row seat to the missional engagement of 100s of churches is exhilarating to her. She is an associate with the exponential team- teaching at conferences and creating leadership resources- most recently her book "Together as a Team". Her newest project is a podcast called A Third Way exploring the tension of following Jesus and the church's invitation to pace culture. She recently served as chair of the board for a global peacemaking organization, and is wrapping up thesis writing for a Master of Arts in New Testament from Northern Seminary. Keri longs to activate the people of God to join Christ in the redemption and restoration of all things.
