Time to move


I wrote this for our church website a few months ago:

"The church is not a building. It is the community of God on mission."

How would church leadership change if pastors were asked to mobilize people rather than attracted them to Sunday morning services?

What if a church community decided to flatten its leadership and give the power it invested in its clergy to small group leaders.

We'd have a movement on our hands, folks.

I don't know about this... sounds kind of radical... have you been reading your Bible again :-)

I'm in.
Of course, that does mean that I'm taking my money and presence elsewhere. How ready are you for that to happen with people who aren't students in transition?
