Почему прежние моды неизменно приходят обратно
Культурная память устроена так, что забытые феномены нечасто пропадают полностью, ведь всякая эстетика оставляет после себя отметину в сознании потомков. профессионалы и обозреватели подчёркивают, что повторяемость обусловлена с психологией, экономикой и технологиями сразу. Личность стремится к привычному, сфера казино ищет проверенные варианты, а медиа умножают любой всплеск внимания, поэтому прошлое постоянно оказывается частью современности. Почему человеку приятно обращаться к известным...
Discover God-given Purpose
We founded Seed in response to three problems. In this blog series we’re outlining the problems and a taste of how Seed plans to respond to them.
Finding a Fixed Mindset Amongst The Frantic
A couple of years ago I ran a Busy Women’s Retreat… That might sound like a contradiction in terms. How can we retreat in the midst of busyness? Is it possible to be still, when nothing around you is?
Pathway Builders Part Two
Where should those pathways lead? Our hope is that the pathways ultimately make it possible for Christians to be agents for redemptive change in society.
Redemptive change is our term for a particular approach to social change that grows out of our engagement with the Christian story. It is an approach to change that results in our growth and formation as followers of Jesus, while also making a positive impact on society and bearing witness to Jesus.
Pathway Builders Part One
Over the last 6 months, a deeper clarity has emerged around the purpose of Seed. After a couple of years working through the detail of ‘how’ we do what we set out to do, we’ve had the pleasure of returning to reconsider in fresh ways ‘why’ Seed exists.

Doing Business God’s Way by Dennis Peacocke
This book was the result of years of study, conversations, and seminars which I taught on the general content in the 1980s.

For sure, economics and business are about here-and-now reality, and the issue therefore is to connect these endeavors and ground them to their spiritual foundations in the God who created them.
Three Tips on Harnessing the Power of Imagination in Your Organisation.
Recently I had a participant in one of our training courses in tears as she went through an imagination process. The tears came because of a realisation that she had lost the capacity to imagine.
The Soul Of An Entrepreneur by Jordan J. Ballor & Victor V. Claar
Although often acknowledged as critically important, the role of the entrepreneur in the modern economy is often underdeveloped or inadequately understood. The reason for this is in large part due to the complex anthropological mysteries that lie at the heart of entrepreneurship.
Identity, Story & Purpose
When God calls people into relationship with him, he offers them new life. Intrinsic to this new life is the offer and assurance of salvation, yet the transformation to new life is much more than salvation, much more than a mere transaction. What happens, primarily, is that God designates us with a new identity. God changes who we are.
The Challenge of Change
As part of our Accelerator program at Seed we consider the reality that in the current marketplace any organisation that wants to succeed must embed innovation and change into their structures and processes from a very early stage.
