This is Agile Life
Learning to live and love like Jesus
Welcome, brothers and sisters, to this brand new thing called Agile Life.
Our goal is a simple one — to share our story and make new friends as we learn to live and love like Jesus.
This mini-series of Medium articles is a whirlwind introduction to Agile Life. It’s an opportunity to invite your feedback on our story so far. And above all it’s an interruption hook; a chance for our young family to reach out and get connected with people going all in for Jesus — just like us — from all over the world.

Startups
As well as experimenting with a brand new discipleship model, Agile Life is a gift and prayer network designed to work in collaboration with One Planet Productions, a project development agency and Cooperative Society (registered in the UK but active in Central Greece).
Over the last 2 years we’ve worked hard to lay the groundworks for regeneration of the Greek ecology, economy and culture, as experienced from our particular local viewpoint in Athens and on Evia island. Now we’re inviting a global gift and prayer network to come in behind this pioneering initiative and make the impossible possible.
Support our reimagined mission field in Central Greece!
Agile Life Sanctuary
A rural co-living project and research farm for holistic living and regeneration of all things with a monastic focus. Stay tuned for more information, coming soon!
Nature Play ALC
Our Agile Learning Community outreach, in Athens and on Evia. Agile Learning Centre (ALC) tools, principles and practices make up the educational model from which our discipleship model is adapted!
Origin Club
Changing the way we grow and trade food in Central Greece, and Europe, and the world! Stay tuned for updates on the implementation of a 3 year R&D programme-in-the-pipeline, all about Community-Supported Agriculture in Central Greece.
Transform Evia
Discovering Evia’s unique place DNA. Towards the regeneration of the ecology, economy and culture of rural Greece. Following a 2 year R&D cycle, we’re taking a step back to “check our hearts” and refocus on growing in intimacy and trust in our relationship with God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.
Why This Matters
What We Believe.
Every individual.
We believe God created every individual with a special purpose, blessing each of us with unique gifts and talents, that we might live fruitful lives. Agile Life helps us to step out in faith, to live courageously, giving ourselves and others permission to make extraordinary mistakes in service of extraordinary learning. Because it is only through testing and trials that we discover who we really are.
Every season.
We believe in the limitless love of Jesus, our living God and forever King. Agile Life helps us learn to stay rooted and planted in him, desiring to bear fruit in every season. Even when it hurts, even when the world says it is impossible. Because it is in our weakness that God’s strength is made perfect. It is in these hidden places that we are prepared in advance for the coming harvest.
Every mountain.
We believe communities centred on Jesus can bear fruit on every mountain. Agile Life is for learning how to build and plant Kingdom cultures on a daily basis, in every aspect of our work, rest and play. Because all authority has been given to Him, overcoming the world is more than a distant possibility, it is a promise.
