Missional Posts

Here are some short, but great content I've found out on the web about Missional Church.

Alan Hirsh on Out of Ur explaining the meaning of Missional


A Churches Missional Resolutionst:

  1. We resolve to learn and speak the language of our culture.
  2. We resolve to sincerely listen to people and their ‘stories’.
  3. We resolve to be a Christian community that is counter-cultural/intuitive.
  4. We resolve to live out our Christianity in our work and recreation.
  5. We resolve to demonstrate the unity of the church in the city.
Nic asks... What If The Church?

…could make a food pantry experience, not feel like a food pantry

…could build entire housing complexes and give them away

…would provide free bus passes to people in the community who didn’t own cars

…could provide transportation for elderly people to go to the doctors

…could teach single moms a skilled trade for free, so they can get a better job

…could be the center of the community

What would it look like for a church to serve it’s community,

What could we accomplish?
