Points 2 & 3 coming.
Still talking about change.
Don’t go back and try to program a shift. Churches will never vote to go Missional. They will always vote to go back to Egypt, because they like the problems they know better than the problems they don’t know.
What you want to do is get the virus started. Be Jesus yourself and share it. When someone else catches it and starts ministering to people, shine a light on them and spread it to the congregation.
Q: Is there a point when you call people to salvation in the missional engagement? A: Absolutely. As soon as the Spirit leads you MUST give an answer for reason for the hope.
Q: Shouldn’t the church be the ones creating these Missional Communities? A: Absolutely. Every church should have many Missional Communities within them set loose to do what needs to be done – not fettered by the church organization, etc. It will cause your church to explode.
Coming Shift: Program Driven to People Driven
