Today's episode is a conversation with Cormac Russell, a social explorer, writer, and speaker inviting folks to look at their communities through the lens of asset-based community development. Cormac has written several books on ABCD, and his most recent, co-authored with John McKnight, is titled "The Connected Community: Discovering the Health, Wealth, and Power of Neighborhoods". His books, articles, and presentations have been a significant part of my own education on asset-based community development, and I am so grateful he joined me for this conversation. 

In this episode, we talk about the asset-based community development framework, the power of discovery as a step towards connected communities, and the role that churches can play in fostering the good life in their own neighborhoods. I hope you enjoy listening in on my conversation with Cormac Russell.
